First spacecraft designed to hold 2 people?
The first American spacecraft designed to hold two people was the Gemini capsule, which made its maiden voyage into space (unmanned test flight) in April, 1963. The first Soviet spacecraft designed to hold two people was the Voshkod capsule, which made its first unmanned test flight in June, 1964.
Why is most space exploration accomplished with spacecraft without astronauts?
The most obvious answer to your question is the fact that people have to return to earth, while an unmanned craft can stay in space infinitely. Manned spacecraft require things like oxygen, water, food and communications equipment, none of which are required by an unmanned spacecraft. That means unmanned spacecrafts can be sent into space for a fraction of the cost of a manned spacecraft. So basically, it's much cheaper and safer to send unmanned spacecrafts to explore the universe.
Are satellites unmanned space vehicles?
Satellites are unmanned spacecraft, and the term unmanned space vehicle could also apply. A spacecraft is a vehicle or machine that is used in space, and there are many different kinds with a variety of missions. Satellites are used for communications, navigation, and planetary observation (including exporation, meteorology and intelligence gathering) to name a few of their applications.
