In 1965, NASA launched the Gemini program, focused on developing space travel techniques required for Apollo moon missions. Gemini 4 marked the first American spacewalk by astronaut Ed White. The Soviet Union launched Voskhod 2, carrying the first human to conduct a spacewalk, Alexei Leonov. It was also the year of the first commercial communications satellite, Early Bird, launched by NASA.
The first untethered spacewalk was conducted by astronaut Bruce McCandless II in 1984 during NASA's STS-41-B mission. Using a Manned Maneuvering Unit (MMU), McCandless ventured away from the safety of the space shuttle Challenger, showcasing the possibility of free-flying in space without being connected to the spacecraft by a tether.
The first Russian spacewalk was conducted by cosmonaut Alexei Arkhipovich Leonov on March 18, 1965, during the Voskhod 2 mission. Leonov spent 12 minutes outside the spacecraft, becoming the first person to perform a spacewalk.
