Human spaceflight
In July of 1969, the first human stepped on the surface of the Moon—a monumental feat for human spaceflight and humanity as a whole. Humans have been going to space since 1961, when cosmonaut Yuri Gargarin become the first human in space. Today human spaceflight continues with programs like the International Space Station. Maybe one day we will even send a human to the surface of another planet.
