The first 3 manned NASA missions were part of the Mercury program. The first two flights were suborbital flights (they did not go into orbit) and the astronaunts (Alan Shepard and Gus Grissom) were launched on Redstone rockets. The third flight was an orbital flight, and John Glenn was launched on an Atlas rocket. All three flights carried the astronauts in the Mercury capsule.

The flights were May 5 1961, July 21 1961, and Feb 20 1962 respectively.
