A pair of fruitflies were sent into space by the United States. This took place in the late 1940s, and the flies were the very first living creatures to go into space.
My answer is that space probes go 5,075 mph, when launched from Earth. Hope I helped you find your answer.
the shuttle went into space because it launched the Hubble space telescope.
On April 12, 1961 the Soviet Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin was launched into space aboard Vostok 1, making him the first human to go into space.
The first successful rockets built to go into space were ICBMs: the Soviet Sputnik I & II were launched on military ICBMs, the US Mercury spacecraft were launched on military ICBMs (Redstone & Atlas), the US Gemini spacecraft were launched on military ICBMs (Titan II). IIRC, the Delta & Saturn rockets were the first successful rockets built to go into space that didn't begin as military ICBMs. Although most Deltas are launched from Vandenberg AFB. The European Arian was the first commercial rocket built to go into space.
Space Shuttle Atlantis launched on September 9, 2006
Apollo 11 went into space in 1969.
The space program that launched the first person into outer space was the Soviet program called Vostok. Yuri Gagarin was the first human to go into space aboard Vostok 1 on April 12, 1961.
The first space buggy to go into space was the Soviet Union's Lunokhod 1, which was launched in 1970 as part of the Luna program.
that it wont go up high enough and it will explode.
The Challenger space shuttle mission was launched to deploy a satellite into orbit, as well as conduct various experiments and observations in space.
Yes. When you go into space, look around, and come back, you always arrive at a time which is later than it was when you launched.
Surely at least thousands ARE launched everyday, if you include weapons and fireworks. But perhaps you are only interested in rockets that go into space.
