* Orbit a man around Earth. * Investigate man’s ability to work in space. II. United States Space Programs : A. Mercury Program Objectives: * Recover both man and space craft safely. B. Mercury Program Information: * Mercury Freedom 7: Alan Shepard becomes first American man in space May 5 th * Mercury Freedom 6: John Glenn becomes first American man to orbit Earth Feb. 20 th * All Mercury missions were * All Mercury missions were one man missions.

C. Gemini Program Objectives: * Learn to maneuver a space craft in space. * Dock a space craft with another space craft. * Practice space walks. D. Gemini Program Information: * Gemini 3: Edward White becomes first American to complete a space walk. * All Gemini missions were two man missions.

E. Apollo Program Objectives: * Land a space craft on the moon. * Have man walk on the moon. * Return all crew to Earth Safely. * Apollo 1: Virgil “Gus” Grissom, Edward White, and Roger Chaffee die in pre-flight test fire. F. Apollo Program Information:

G. SPACE SHUTTLE INFO: ENTERPRISE (first built, used for tests in Earth’s atmosphere COLUMBIA (first one to enter space-1981, exploded during landing-2003) DISCOVERY (carried the Hubble telescope into space-1990) CHALLENGER (carried Sally Ride-1 st U.S. woman in space, exploded 72 seconds after launch-1986) ENDEAVOUR (built to replace the Challenger, first flight-1992 ATLANTIS (Responsible for launch of the Galileo Space Probe-1989)

H. Space Stations, & Probes: 1. Space Station- is a large artificial satellite on which people can live and work for long periods of time. 2. Examples: a. Sky Lab b. International Space Station present 3. Space Probes- a space craft that carries scientific instruments that can collect data on far away places which are to far for humans to travel. 4. Examples: a. Sputnik (1st USSR) c. Voyager (Outer Planets) b. Explorer (1st USA 1/31/58) d. New Horizons (Pluto)
