Mercury

The Mercury spacecraft was designed for this project. Two types of rockets were used for Project Mercury. The first two of the six flights with an astronaut on board used a rocket. The four manned flights that orbited Earth used an Atlas rocket. Both of these rockets were originally designed as missiles for the U.S military.

The point of this program was to get the first Americans to space.They got to space by using a small capsule that only has one room for one astronaut.Also in the capsule the astronaut would have to sit the whole way.A second way of transportation is by 2 rockets.This program allowed the agency to learn how to put an astronaut into orbit around the earth.Also they learned how people would live and work in space and lastly how to oberate a space kraft.
