Read the following passage and decide whether the following statements are True or False.
In the beginning, the Soviet Union dominated the space race. They were the first to orbit a satellite, the
first to send a living creature into space, and the first to send a human being into space. With a little time,
the United States always managed to do the same thing, but it always seemed to come in second. This was
not because the U.S. started late, but because it took longer to plan and test its missions. Also, the Soviets
kept the details of their missions secret, and it has not been until recently that we have found out many of
the risks they took on their way to space.
The United States had already begun serious plans for spaceflight in October of 1958, when President
Eisenhower created the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). NASA promptly
announced the first manned space program, Mercury, and in 1959 the first seven astronaut candidates
were named. These were the famous “Mercury 7”: Scott Carpenter, Gordon (Gordo) Cooper, John Glenn,
Virgil (Gus) Grissom, Walter (Wally) Schirra, Alan B. (Al) Shepard and Donald (Deke) Slayton.
Yet the second human being to orbit the Earth was Gherman Titov, another Soviet cosmonaut, and the
first American in space, Alan B. Shepard, didn’t even orbit the Earth when he went up only three weeks
after Yuri Gagarin. He made a suborbital flight, meaning that he went up into space but came right back
down without orbiting the Earth.
The first United States astronaut to orbit the Earth was John Glenn, on February 20, 1962, nearly a year
after the successful mission by Gagarin. The citizens of the United States were relieved and excited that
Glenn had made it, and made a hero out of him.
As time passed, more men (and some women, in the case of the U.S.S.R.) made Earth orbits, and the
space commands of the two nations became more experienced in planning and executing their missions.
Yet in all these flights, the astronauts and cosmonauts were sealed inside their capsules, protected by
layers of metal from the endless vacuum of outer space. What would happen if a space-craft needed to be
repaired, or if people wanted to build space stations? Were there ways that people could move about and
work in space without going insane from the lack of weight, the disappearance of “up” and “down,” and
their distance from Earth? This was not answered until 1965, when both the U.S.S.R. and the U.S.
planned their first “space walks.” M i
