✎ Reference Information.
🔎 An astronaut or cosmonaut is a person trained by a human spaceflight program to command, pilot, or serve as a crew member of a spacecraft.
🔎 Cosmonaut Alexei Leonov was the first person to conduct an extravehicular activity (EVA), (commonly called a “spacewalk”), on March 18, 1965, on the Soviet Union’s Voskhod 2 mission. This was followed two and a half months later by astronaut Ed White who made the first American EVA on NASA’s Gemini 4 mission.
🔎 In 1959, when both the United States and Soviet Union were planning, but had yet to launch humans into space, NASA Administrator T. Keith Glennan and his Deputy Administrator, Dr. Hugh Dryden, discussed whether spacecraft crew members should be called astronauts or cosmonauts. Dryden preferred “cosmonaut”, on the grounds that flights would occur in the cosmos (near space), while the “astro” prefix suggested flight to the stars. Most NASA Space Task Group members preferred “astronaut”, which survived by common usage as the preferred American term. When the Soviet Union launched the first man into space, Yuri Gagarin in 1961, they chose a term which anglicizes to “cosmonaut”.
🔎 The first human in space was Soviet Yuri Gagarin, who was launched on April 12, 1961, aboard Vostok 1 and orbited around the Earth for 108 minutes.
🔎 Bruce McCandless II was a U.S. naval officer and aviator, electrical engineer, and NASA astronaut. In 1984, during the first of his two Space Shuttle missions, he completed the first untethered spacewalk by using the Manned Maneuvering Unit.
