Christa McAuliffe was to have been the first teacher in space, as part of the 'Teacher in Space' project.Regrettably Christa was killed when the space shuttle Challenger was traveling towards space and exploded 73 seconds after launch. She did not actually reach space.In August 2007, Christa's back-up, Barbara Morgan, entered space on August 8th, 2007 as an 'educator astronaut' but NASA apparently avoided calling her a 'teacher in space', as she had to give up her role as teacher to become an astronaut.

No, you are not related to your wife's uncle.
Among US astronauts the Challenger crew members Judith Resnik and Christa Mcauliffe both died- with all other hands- when their craft exploded barely 2 minutes into the trajectory. I do not know if any Female cosmonauts have died in space-related accidents . The other fatal spaceflight accident involving two females- also was the Space Shuttle Columbia- which occured on re-entry, not launch. In orbit proper- mercifully that hasn"t happened yet. I do not know about Russian female cosmonauts.
