Question: This aircraft carrier served as a recovery ship for this flight which circled the earth how many times?

<P0-S0> With the advent of heavier-than-air flight, the aircraft carrier has become a decisive weapon at sea. <P0-S1>  In 1911 aircraft began to be successfully launched and landed on ships with the successful flight of a Curtiss Pusher aboard the USS "Pennsylvania". <P0-S2>  The British Royal Navy pioneered the first aircraft carrier as floatplanes, as flying boats under performed compared to traditional land based aircraft. <P0-S3>  The first true aircraft carrier was the HMS "Argus" , launched in late 1917 with a complement of 20 aircraft, a flight deck of 550 ft and 68 ft wide. <P0-S4>  The last aircraft carrier sunk in wartime was the Japanese carrier "Amagi", in Kure Harbour in July 1945. <P0-S5>  The greatest loss of life was the 2,046 killed on the "Akitsu Maru"—a converted passenger liner with a small flight deck, carrying the Imperial Japanese Army's 64th Infantry Regiment. <SEP> <P1-S0> USS "Wasp" (CV/CVA/CVS-18) was one of 24 "Essex"-class aircraft carrier s built during World War II for the United States Navy. <P1-S1>  The ship, the ninth US Navy ship to bear the name, was originally named "Oriskany", but was renamed while under construction in honor of the previous "Wasp" (CV-7) , which was sunk 15 September 1942. <P1-S2>  "Wasp" was commissioned in November 1943, and served in several campaigns in the Pacific Theater of Operations, earning eight battle stars. Like many of her sister ships, she was decommissioned shortly after the end of the war, but was modernized and recommissioned in the early 1950s as an attack carrier (CVA), and then eventually became an antisubmarine carrier (CVS). <P1-S3>  In her second career she operated mainly in the Atlantic, Mediterranean, and Caribbean. <P1-S4>  She played a prominent role in the manned space program, serving as the recovery ship for five missions: Gemini IV, Gemini VI, Gemini VII, Gemini IX and Gemini XII. <P1-S5>  She was retired in 1972 and sold for scrap in 1973. <SEP> <P2-S0> John Herschel Glenn Jr. (July 18, 1921 – December 8, 2016) was a United States Marine Corps aviator, engineer, astronaut, and United States Senator from Ohio. <P2-S1>  In 1962 he became the first American to orbit the Earth, circling it three times. <SEP> <P3-S0> USS "Randolph" (CV/CVA/CVS-15) was one of 24 "Essex"-class aircraft carrier s built during World War II for the United States Navy. <P3-S1>  The second US Navy ship to bear the name, she was named for Peyton Randolph, president of the First Continental Congress. <P3-S2>  "Randolph" was commissioned in October 1944, and served in several campaigns in the Pacific Theater of Operations, earning three battle stars. Decommissioned shortly after the end of the war, she was modernized and recommissioned in the early 1950s as an attack carrier (CVA), and then eventually became an antisubmarine carrier (CVS). <P3-S3>  In her second career she operated exclusively in the Atlantic, Mediterranean, and Caribbean. <P3-S4>  In the early 1960s she served as the recovery ship for two Project Mercury space missions, including John Glenn's historic first orbital flight.
