Manned Space Exploration From Start to Gemini

The Space Race USA & Soviet Union were allied to defeat Hitler during WWII. Germany had all good rocket scientists. Once we defeat Hitler, we take ½ & USSR takes ½ of the rocket scientists so we can make bigger, better weapons. Cold War starts at the end of WWII. Arms race starts between US & USSR Click on the picture to follow link to You Tube

USSR Takes the Lead USSR takes the lead by: 1st Satellite in space – Sputnik 1st living thing in space – Laika the dog 1st person in space & to orbit – Yuri Gagarin

US Plays “Catch Up” We get rocket scientist Werner Von Braun from Germany after WWII JFK establishes NASA –National Aeronautics and Space Administration Our rockets are unreliable – explode often

We decide to go.. Kennedy makes his famous speeches

USA Manned Space Program Program # of Astronauts Purpose Mercury One astronaut To see if we could survive or live in space Gemini Two astronauts To see if we could work and Rendezvous Apollo Three Astronauts Land safely and explore the moon Shuttle 5 – 7 astronauts Cargo ship to transport into low Earth orbit International Varies Permanent Manned presence in space Space Station

Project Mercury Purpose: See if man could survive in space 1 astronaut per flight Original Mercury 7 Astronauts: Alan Shepard, Gus Grissom, John Glenn, Wally Schirra, Scott Carpenter, Gordon Cooper and Deke Slaton 1st American in space: Alan Shepard (oops, he had to go potty) 2nd American in space: Gus Grissom 3rd American in space & 1st in orbit: John Glenn

Project Gemini Purpose: To see if we could work and Rendezvous 2 astronauts per flight 12 Gemini flights, 10 were manned Major objectives achieved rendezvous and docking with other orbiting vehicles maneuver the docked vehicles in space Space walk Perfect reentry & landing spacecraft Gemini 3 – 1st 2 manned flight ( Grissom & Young) Gemini 6 & 7 – in space at same time, dock together successfully Gemini 8 – Neil Armstrong -Docked but tumbled out of control, crew almost lost Gemini 4 - ED White: 1st USA to Space Walk
