The development of a new, larger spacecraft with a cargo bay brings an end for the older capsule vehicles. The new craft would revolutionize space travel, but someone would need to drive it. This would require a true test pilot, and John Young, the man who sat alongside Gus Grissom on the first Gemini flight was the chosen man. NASA's manned programs are again leading the way, but space travel remains as dangerous as ever and tragedy again strikes when the space shuttle Challenger explodes, killing all aboard. | | There are no foreign summaries for this episode: Contribute |
