  Walter Schirra
Category : Astronauts
   
In brief :
Walter Schirra. Astronaut.
   
Fee Range : Please contact us for fee info

Captain Schirra has spent a total of 295 hours and 15 minutes in space. Uniquely, he is the only Astronaut to have flown to Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo.

Schirra was one of the seven Mercury Astronauts named by NASA in 1959. In 1962, he piloted the six orbit Sigma 7 Mercury flight, lasting 9 hours and 15 minutes. The spacecraft attained a velocity of 17,557 miles per hour at an altitude of 175 statue miles and traveled almost 144,000 statute miles before re-entry into the earth's atmosphere.

Schirra next served as backup command pilot for the Gemini III Mission where he occupied the Command Pilot seat on the history-making Gemini 6 flight. Schirra remained in the spacecraft following his Mercury and Gemini flight and is the first Astronaut to be brought aboard recovery ships twice in this manner.

He was the Command Pilot on Apollo VII, the first manned flight test of the three direction United States spacecraft. Schirra took part in, and executed, maneuvers enabling crew members to perform exercises in transposition and docking and orbit rendezvous with the S-IVB stage from the Saturn IB launch vehicle. The mission completed eight successful tests and maneuvering ignitions of the service module propulsion engine, measured the accuracy of performance of all spacecraft systems, and provided the first effective television transmission of on-board crew activities.
