I was born in Shanghai, China, to Baptist missionary parents, but grew up in Bethany, Oklahoma and graduated from Bethany High School in 1960. I attended the University of Oklahoma where I obtained a Bachelor's degree in chemistry in 1963, Master's degree in biochemistry in 1970, and my Ph.D. in biochemistry in 1973.
I’m one of six women in the first astronaut class with female students in 1978. My first space flight was in June 1985 on Space Shuttle Discovery's mission STS-51-G. I also flew on shuttle missions STS-34 in 1989, STS-43 in 1991, and STS-58 in 1993.
I’m best known for my fifth spaceflight, when I spent 188 days in space, from March 22 to September 26, 1996, including 179 days aboard Mir, the Russian space station. Both to and from Mir, I travelled on Space Shuttle Atlantis, launching on STS-76 and returning on STS-79. My stay on Mir was not expected to last so long but my return was delayed twice, extending my stay by about six weeks. During the mission I performed numerous life science and physical science experiments. As a result of my time aboard Mir, I held the record for the most hours in orbit by a non-Russian and most hours in orbit by a woman.
From 2002 to 2003, I served as the Chief Scientist of NASA. Starting in 2005, I also served as lead capsule communicator on the Planning (overnight) shift in Mission Control for a number of Space Shuttle missions, including: STS-114, STS-116, STS-118, STS-120, STS-122, STS-124, STS-125, STS-126, STS-127, STS-128, STS-129, STS-130, STS-132, STS-133, STS-134 and STS-135.
