== Journey of an American Hero ==
=== First American to orbit the Earth ===
On February 20, 1962, John Glenn, one of the first seven astronauts in the U.S. space program, strapped into the 9-by-6 foot Mercury capsule, Friendship 7, and orbited the Earth three times in just 4 hours, 55 minutes. That's 17,500 mph! Astronaut Glenn received the Space Congressional Medal of Honor for this pioneering journey.
=== First Ohioan to win four consecutive terms in the U.S. Senate ===
In 1974 he made his first trip to Capitol Hill after winning the Ohio election. Senator Glenn's work has focused on technical and scientific issues, education, and controlling the spread of nuclear weapons. He will retire at the end of his fourth term in 1998.
=== Back in space after 36 years ===
On October 29, 1998, Astronaut Glenn, 77, will lift off with the Mission STS-95 crew as payload specialist aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery. His 10-day voyage will help scientists study the effects of space flight and aging. And his courage will inspire millions of Americans once again as he rockets into space exploration history!
