SPACE TRANSPORT AND IT'S DISCOVERY
Space Transport is the transfer of humans and other kinds of living and non-living beings to outer space through the power and architecture of modern space transportation systems such as rockets, space stations etc. We human beings have been venturing into space since October 4, 1957, when the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (U.S.S.R.) launched Sputnik, the first artificial satellite to orbit Earth. This happened during the period of political hostility between the Soviet Union and the United States known as the Cold War.
THE BEGINNING of EVOLUTION OF SPACE TRANSPORT
After the USSR launched Sputnik on October 4, 1957, humans and many more have been going to see the far beyond. Then, a month later, on November 3, 1957, the Soviets achieved an even more impressive space venture. This was Sputnik II, a satellite that carried a living creature, a dog named Laika. During the 1960s, NASA made progress toward President John F Kennedy’s goal of landing a human on the moon with a program called Project Gemini, in which astronauts tested technology needed for future flights to the moon, and tested their own ability to endure many days in spaceflight. In 1969, on Apollo 11, the United States sent the first astronauts to the Moon, and Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to set foot on its surface and achieved Kennedy’s goal. This then started a revolutionary start to Space Travel with more and more humans travelling to space till today.
The space transportation systemThe Space Transportation System (STS), also known internally to NASA as the Integrated Program Plan (IPP), was a proposed system of reusable manned space vehicles envisioned in 1969 to support extended operations beyond the Apollo program. (NASA appropriated the name for its Space Shuttle Program, the only component of the proposal to survive Congressional funding approval). The purpose of the system was two-fold: to reduce the cost of spaceflight by replacing the current method of launching capsules on expendable rockets with reusable spacecraft, and to support ambitious follow-on programs including permanent orbiting space stations around the Earth and Moon, and a human landing mission to Mars. They had many vehicles such as Nuclear Ferries, Space Tugs, Earth to Orbit shuttles and much more.

The most unforgettable moments
- We had many legendary and groundbreaking moments in space travel and its history. Here are just a few of many :
- On April 12, 1961, the space race was kicked off in earnest when Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin became the first human ever in Earth's orbit.
- On July 20, 1969, 650 million people watched as Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to walk on the moon.
- On Nov. 13, 1971, Mariner 9, an unmanned NASA probe, completed an orbit around Mars and is the first spacecraft to orbit around another planet.
- On April 13, 2017, scientists at NASA shared findings from the agency’s Cassini spacecraft mission to Saturn. It seems that a chemical reaction that is occurring underneath the icy surface of one of the planet’s moons, Enceladus, could be a sign that it could also support alien life, in another potentially groundbreaking discovery in the search for life beyond Earth.
- On September 15, 2017, Cassini ended its 20-year mission.
QUOTE by Neil Armstrong
"THAT’S ONE SMALL STEP FOR MAN, ONE GIANT LEAP FOR MANKIND."
