Scott Carpenter, Mercury Astronaut Who Orbited Earth, Dies at 88
M. Scott Carpenter, whose flight into space in 1962 as the second American to orbit the Earth was marred by technical glitches and ended with the nation waiting anxiously to see if he had survived a landing far from the target site, died on Thursday in Denver. He was 88 and one of the last two surviving astronauts of America’s original space program, Project Mercury. (www.nytimes.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Godspeed Scott Carpenter. You and your six fellow Mercury Astronauts heroically took the first steps into space. You set an example for all Americans, and are an inspiration to all in aviation.
