As far as we're aware, John Glenn didn't invent anything significant, except possibly
for some bills he introduced in the Senate. In any case, those wouldn't be the things
for which his name became well-known.
John Glenn was first a decorated US Marine Corps pilot, and flew the first US orbital
space mission, completing three orbits of the Earth in his space capsule, "Friendship 7",
on February 20, 1962. He was the third American in space, following sub-orbital flights
by Alan Shepard and Virgil "Gus" Grissom.
Glenn was later a Senator from Ohio (1974 to 1999) and flew aboard the Space
Shuttle at the age of 77, in 1998.
