Freedom 7 Full Flight Animation

Описание к видео Freedom 7 Full Flight Animation

On May 5, 1961, Astronaut Alan B. Shepard Jr. became the first American in space during a short suborbital hop to validate systems on the Mercury Spacecraft in preparation for orbital flights. While a success, the flight was slightly overshadowed by the Soviet Union's orbital flight manned by Yuri Gagarin less than a month earlier.

Shepard wouldn't fly into space again until 1971 when he became the 5th person to walk on the Moon as commander of Apollo 14.
