WHO FIRST GET UP TO "SEVEN"?

First terrestrial with finish six space flight American astronaut John Young (Gemini-3/1965 and -10/1966, Apollo-10/1969 and -16/1972, Columbia STS-1/1981 and -9/1983). His record was tilll this time several times quits, but never don't overrule.
Step by step him I have squared up with him Story Musgrave (Challenger STS-6/1983 and -51F/1985, Discovery STS-33/1989, Atlantis STS-44/1991, Endeavour STS-61/1993, Columbia STS-80/1996), Franklin-Chang Diaz (Columbia STS-61C/1986, Atlantis STS-34/1989 and -46/1992, Discovery STS-60/1994, Columbia STS-75/1996, Discovery STS-91/1998), Jerry Ross (Atlantis STS-61B/1985, -27/1988 and -37/1991, Columbia STS-55/1993, Atlantis STS-74/1995, Endeavour STS-88/1998) and Curtis Brown (Endeavour STS-47/1992, Atlantis STS-66/1994, Endeavour STS-77/1996, Discovery STS-85/1997, -95/1998 and -103/1999). Only Musgrave already isn't among active member division astronauts, surplus shall they chance achieve one dreamt-of "seven". Interesting is, that also Young has all the time status active astronaut, but is unlikely, he should with even sometimes into space start (at least under the auspices of NASA).
Too women with probably "skirmish" - but no about seven, but about six. Four women already was in space fivefold and all remain on in active training. Nominally is concerned Shannon Lucid (Discovery STS-51G/1985, Atlantis STS-34/1989 and -43/1991, Columbia STS-58/1993 and Atlantis STS-76/1996), Bonnie Dunbar (Challenger STS-61A/1985, Columbia STS-32/1990 and -50/1992, Atlantis STS-71/1995, Endeavour STS-89/1998), Tamara Jernigan (Columbia STS-40/1991 and -52/1992, Endeavour STS-67/1995, Columbia STS-80/1996 and Discovery STS-96/1999) and Janice Voss (Endeavour STS-57/1993, Discovery STS-63/1995, Columbia STS-83/1997 and -94/1997, Endeavour STS-99/2000).
PS: To John Young several notation. Sometimes is in connection with his by name introduction number START seven. It that is why, that in years 1972 in frames mission Apollo-16 landed and work on Moon, from where later SEND-OFF back on land.
Second notice: In years 1986 with prepare into space ap seven ('d order campaign in August given year, when with 'd give over on circulating course space telescope Hubble), but up breakdown Challenger (January 1986) with his further start already no see. Official reason was his high age, unofficial with talk about his critical attitude towards security statesmanship NASA...
