58 YEARS AGO TODAY, APOLLO 7 CHANGED THE COURSE OF SPACE HISTORY
On October 11, 1968, NASA launched Apollo 7, the first crewed mission of the Apollo program.
Astronauts Wally Schirra, Donn Eisele, and Walter Cunningham spent 11 days in Earth orbit, testing the Apollo command and service modules and proving that the spacecraft was ready for the next steps toward the Moon.
The mission marked a crucial comeback after the Apollo 1 tragedy in 1967, when astronauts Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger B. Chaffee lost their lives during a ground test.
Apollo 7's success paved the way for Apollo 8, which would send humans around the Moon just two months later.
Every giant leap begins with a critical first step.
