Yes, he was very famous, although he did not invent the rocket: he build the primitive spaceship: a space rocket.
The first manned space shuttle mission occurred on the 12th of April 1981. However it was the space shuttle Columbia, not the Saturn V rocket. The Saturn V rocket was first used for a manned mission on December the 21st 1968. Two very different space vehicles. The Saturn V rocket was used to send man to the Moon, where as the space shuttle is used to sent humans into Earth orbit.
You press the space bar when you are VERY close to the ground.
space rocket is very powerful. You can feel up to 3gs continues until you escape velocity.

Every action has an equal but opposite reaction. Throw burned fuel very rapidly one way (what a rocket does) and it pushes the rocket the other way. Some people wrongly think a rocket works by pushing the air behind it, but in space there is no air!
No, The V2 never reached space. I am a history nut about WWII so I know this sort of things. It couldn't have reached space for a few reasons. 1. It was solid fueled. solid fueled rockets don't have enough power to get themselves into space. 2. If it had, Germany would have made the first inter-continental ballistic missile (ICBM) and they would've bombed the U.S. 3.It's gyroscope wouldn't work very well in the high atmosphere/space.

What exectly do you mean. If you mean the very first objects in space, it would be a soup of protons, electrons and neutrons.
Astronauts who have traveled to space aboard the space shuttle have seen the stars from the spacecraft's windows. Seeing the stars from space is a unique and awe-inspiring experience that very few people have had the opportunity to witness.
The term 'rocket' is very General, the first recorded flying object to take off using rocket propulsion was either the Me-163 or the V-1 Doodlebug, both made in Nazi Germany.
Space shuttles took of vertically, attached to an external fuel tank and two solid rocket boosters (SRBs).A space shuttle takes off by burning fuel at very high temperatures and this provides lift. The rocket needs to carry extra tanks of fuel for it to provide the combustion for a reasonable amount of time until the shuttle gets into orbit.
