On February 20, 1962, John Glenn became the first American to orbit the Earth, piloting the spacecraft Friendship 7. This archival film from NASA captures the exhilarating moments before from Cape Canaveral and the dramatic rocket launch, with views inside the capsule, in mission control, and from the New Frontier of outer space. Hear the famous words uttered just seconds before launch by Scott Carpenter, Glenn's backup astronaut for the mission, "Godspeed, John Glenn."

RIP John Glenn and Katherine Johnson who made it possible for John Glenn to complete his journey into space .⚘ RIP to Mary Jackson and Dorothy Vaughan as well!!⚘⚘
When he passed over Australia, the Western Australian city of Perth was lit up for him.
Indeed!
I remember when he flew over Perth in 1998 for STS-95. We lit up for him.
a real hero of humanity - semper fidelis john glenn
Rest in Peace Sir.
*HERO & LEGEND : JOHN GLENN.*
R.I.P. :-) Godspeed :-) ROCK ON!!!!!!!
I’m so proud to say that he is one of my relatives
Annie is with John now, by his side!! Great People...
Super Hero of United States！！！We need more Role Model like him
Not only was John Glenn the first American in Space, but if I'm not mistaken, he would later become the oldest American in Space.
RIP gohn Glenn my hero 1912-2016
its soo normal now. but to think back then they thought to strap a man on top of an ICBM just for the ride.
Amazing
Godspeed Col. Glenn
GUTS! TRAILBLAZER! LEGEND! BALLS! THE RIGHT STUFF! ASTRONAUT! FAMILY MAN! HUSBAND! THE NAME IS JOHN GLENN! RIP MARINE! YOUR NAME WILL ENDURE TO THE STARS AND BEYOND!!!
RIP John Glenn The Last of the Mercury Boys
RIP JOHN, FOR GIVING US THE RIGHT STUFF, MAC'S DAUGHTER, MARY McEuen Myers
I don't think it was a coincidence that Glen Powell played John Glen in Hidden Figures and got cast as Hangman in TG Maverick! This is so Tom Cruise in the opening sequence. Also a shout out to Katherine G. Johnson for her contributions to this moment!
John Herschel Glenn Jr., One of the greatest American icons from the Greatest Generation.
I had the honor of meeting NeilArmstrong at a party years ago. I stuttered all over myself, lol. What do you say to such an icon? “Were you scared?” was my totally moronic question. He smiled and said “I was terrified the whole way!” Hahaha….John Glenn paved the way for the rest of our space heroes.
Thank you for John, America 🇺🇸 🙏 ❤🤍💙
Today Commemorates John Glenn's 100th Birthday
Stones of steel. RIP.
B Robinson wow.
Well I'm aware of NASA using colour correction and the like, but may I suggest to you, that you need to really take a hard look at something Humanity's developed called Science.
Mr Robinson, I appreciate the concern, and I've already looked into it and before Hammurabi to the Akkadian Empire and Sumer. It's all highly interesting stuff, and while I do think there are cabals out there, the thought of one supreme shadowy organisation controlling everything is the stuff of fiction and bored minds. I implore you to pick up and read one of Lawrence Krauss's books. I've gone over the flat Earth theory and I'm afraid it just doesn't hold water, no pun intended.
Mr Robinson, why would you ever believe something that "Satan Worshipping Freemason" tells you? Your purported experience with them may be true, but again that does not add any validity to the claim that the Earth is flat. Not to be disrespectful, but I'd argue that your own research on the subject was minimal at best and biased at worst. The codex Magica is an insult to the word codex and it's author, Texe Marr is a man of questionable character, driven, I'd say, by greed and bigotry. You are right though, that our knowledge of the world is limited, but maybe, one day, scientists will come up with a ToE.
B Robinson righto.

I think that's one the best ways I have heard space travel summarised
"Zero G and I feel fine!" Haha! You'll never be forgotten John Glenn.
A true American hero
Being the first american to Earth from space, great achievement. Earth is so beautyfull, from above
actually it was alan shepard lmao
Can you imagine what it must have felt like tone in that rocket alone!
To be*
A true american patriot, RIP John Glenn
What is it with all the "flat earth" people?
Obviously, those "flat earth" people are uneducated at best
He recognized the value of Katherine Johnson
Godspeed, John Glenn. Ignore all these bigots who disrespect you
I thought John Glenn was a God when I was a kid...maybe the best human on earth!
He didn't even leave the Firmament, just circled our flat earth. what a hero.
Prizm cell wow that is stupid.
babecat2000 do yo even science?
Phaneron you don't know science or English go back to school.
Yup, it is stupid that people still believe this crap. question everything and research it for yourself to verify it's validity.
babecat2000 school indoctrinates and I think for myself so no thank you also I know science and it sims like its a religion with its 'you dont question science' thing
looks like you were three times wrong but thats okey cuz you can always learn stuff
just dont go back to your school thou
educate youself insead
good day
Gagarin did it first
Yeah but John Glenn was a badass
HumbleBee2000 Pretty sure Gagarin was more badass than him.
True but they were badass in their own rights
Starling he went to space, didn't orbit first.

Dear National Geographic: I am voting "dislike", since nobody at National Geographic seems to have the balls to edit and delete the comments of the very obvious spammers and trolls.
if the earth is flat... how did the night and morning stuff happens? does it spinning? can u guys tell me how the space working? sun above us and sudden went missing when night.. could it be this flat eart rotating? if we.. why dont we fall? gravity center ? im imagining the earth is like a cuboid .. thick cuboid.. still cant figured it out how the hell night and morning happens.. the people at the end of the cuboid must have seen space! hey, you said it is flat, there must not be some kind of wall that cover up the entire space.. by space i mean the universe.. i need explaination here.. about human went to moon? i still doubt it.. 1/8 weight (i guess, maybe 1/6) .. the footstep is so 'deep' .. was it moon really that 'soft' .. why wasnt the ship(im gonna call it ship because idk its name) sunk? the ship is wayy more heavier than Neil.. can somebody explain to me.. i expect much from this nat geo youtube ch.. thank you

The horizon does not curve. Horizon always stays at eye-level and is always straight. Gyroscopes and artificial horizons are based on this simple fact. The earth is flat and stationary. Pilots use long range navigational systems called NDBs, VORs, and ADFs. These navigational systems are land based; not in space. As a pilot, I have never found myself chasing the runway. The runway is stationary. Food for thought. Bon apathy.
The study of fluids. Air and water are two different mediums, but both are treated as fluids, in thermodynamics and physics in general. Just as in water, objects will rise or fall in air, according to the laws of density and buoyancy and archimedes principle.
Perhaps your brainwashing is too far gone for you to even remember the simple fact that gravity is still a theory. Which makes you a gravity theorist. Add to that an evolution and big bang theorist, and a relativist.
You have no thoughts of your own and no critical thinking. You feel safe basking in your ignorance, behind your walls of illusions and in the shadows of your overlords, with your ass totally Stockholm-syndromed. The truth shall set you free, brother.

I have nothing to say.... you just described yourself in this very paragraph
thanks for doing my job
***** or maybe its because your a delusional, incompetent, disrespectful, pleb who can't understand who physics or gravity works!
"Oh 100 and 1,000's of years of testing and testing, understanding our world is WRONG EXCEPT FOR ME!!!" Conspritards like you in a nutshell

in the words Shiro Sagiso,
'Sacred Blessings count for nothing'
Napoleon Bonapathy So, if the Earth is flat, then how can you explain the changing of seasons and around the world travel
Kerbal space program really makes you appreciate the art it takes to complete an orbit
Good Riddance, Satan's pawn..
No he's a saint conspiratards like yourselves are devil worshippers
HumbleBee2000 You're not funny, and I still stand by my damn comment.. Bee on and find some hives..
Well your comment only matter if you have a meanful reasoning behind it!
Not only that I wasn't trying to be funny
HumbleBee2000 My comment did had a reasonable meaning behind it.. I meant what the hell I dropped.. Buzz on, and stfu..
HumbleBee2000 You on MUTE!! Buzz someone else's comments, and still stfu..
