Answer:
Kalpana Chawla's first mission was in the space shuttle Columbia. It was a 15 days, 16 hours and 34 minutes. During this time, she went around the earth 252 times traveling 1.45 million km. The crew performed experiments such as pollinating plants to observe food growth in space.
Kalpana Chawla, the first Indian-born woman to fly in space would have turned 55 today if not for that fateful accident on February 1, 2003 when Space Shuttle Columbia perished upon entry to the earth's atmosphere leading to her death and six other astronauts.
