Abstract
Dreaming of space travel is increasingly common. There are so many science fiction movies and TV shows, popular songs, and space observation centers for people of all ages-even science-themed fashion fuels our curiosity. These ventures were first inspired by the results of pioneering space programs in the 1950s-1970s. In chronological order, the early programs in the United States were the <;i>Freedom Seven<;/i> (1961, one astronauts per vehicle), Gemini (1961-1966, two astronauts per vehicle), and <;i>Apollo<;/i> missions (1963-1972, with three astronauts per vehicle, which led to the first human moon landing in 1969) as well as the <;i>Skylab<;/i> program (1973-1974), which launched the first U.S. space station. Other achievements from that era included the launch of the <;i>Sputnik, Vostok<;/i>, and <;i>Luna<;/i> spacecraft as part of the Soviet space program.
