Speace Exploration

A space mission is a space exploration aimed at discovering the mysteries of space. The search is usually conducted through human and robotic space. The first step in sending man-made objects into space was taken by German scientists.

On October 3, 1942, German scientists test-launched the rocket V-2 into space. Then, on October 4, 1958, the Soviet Union launched the world's first satellite, Sputnik-1, into space. Yuri Gagarin, a 26-year-old Russian astronaut, traveled through Vostok 1 on April 12, 1981. During this time, Vostok-1 rotated in orbit around the earth once every hour and forty-eight minutes.
