Launch of Mercury MA-6
Bildnummer 11887571
| Launch of America's first orbital spaceflight. The Mercury Atlas rocket,carrying astronaut John Glenn,blasts off from Cape Canaveral at the beginning of Mercury mission MA-6 on 20 February 1962. Glenn became the first American to orbit the Earth on this mission,in his capsule named Friendship 7. The orbit reached 161km x 261km,at an inclination of 32.5 degrees. A telemetry fault gave a false warning that the craft's heatshield was unlocked. The flight was abandoned after just three orbits,and Glenn landed safely - 4 hours 55 minutes after launch. Glenn never went into space again,entering politics after leaving NASA and becoming a US Senator | |
