Original Note:
There have been 382 human spaceflight launches. Two missions did not cross either the Kármán line or the U.S. definition of space and therefore do not qualify as spaceflights. These were the fatal STS-51-L (Challenger disaster), and the non-fatal aborted Soyuz mission T-10a. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_human_spaceflights#:~:text=As%20of%20the%20launch%20of,do%20not%20qualify%20as%20spaceflights.
