In Depth : Astronaut Christina Koch's 328 days in space

NASA astronaut Christina Koch, who led the first all-female spacewalk in 2019, landed on Earth on Thursday after a record stay of almost 11 months on the International Space Station.
She landed in Kazakhstan after 328 days in space, along with Luca Parmitano of the European Space Agency and Alexander Skvortsov of the Russian space agency.
Koch's 328 days in space eclipsed Peggy Whitson's record for an American woman on a single spaceflight at 289 days.
The mission is expected to yield new insights into deep-space travel, providing researchers valuable data on how weightlessness and space radiation affect the female body on long spaceflights.
Especially her medical data will be valuable to NASA scientists as the agency draws up plans for a long-duration manned mission to Mars.
On this edition of IN DEPTH, we tell you all about Christina Koch's record-setting mission and how will her 328-day stay on the International Space Station help in various future missions... We'll also talk about Indian women in space.
