EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a significant moment in history - the interior view of the Mercury spacecraft Friendship 7. On May 14th, 1962, this iconic space capsule arrived at the Science Museum in London, where it became an awe-inspiring exhibit for all to see. Inside this small cockpit lies the remarkable journey of astronaut John Glenn. Just a few months prior, on February 20th, he piloted Friendship 7 and embarked on three orbits around our planet. This groundbreaking achievement made him not only the first US astronaut to orbit Earth but also solidified his place as the third American to venture into space after Alan B. Shepard and Virgil Ivan Gus Grissom. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back to that era of exploration and discovery. The displays surrounding the spacecraft provide insight into NASA's mission and showcase various mannequins representing astronauts like John Glenn himself. The Mercury Atlas 6 capsule stands as a testament to human ingenuity and bravery in pushing beyond earthly boundaries. It serves as a reminder of mankind's relentless pursuit of knowledge and our unyielding desire to explore what lies beyond our own atmosphere. Tony Eyles' expertly captured image allows us to relive this historic moment within the confines of a single frame - an extraordinary glimpse into one small step that paved the way for giant leaps in space exploration.
