Mercury-Redstone Launch Vehicle: Modifications from the Redstone missile, On display & Overview

The Mercury-Redstone Launch Vehicle, designed for NASA's Project Mercury, was the first American crewed space booster. It was used for six sub-orbital Mercury flights in 1960 and 1961, culminating with the launch of the first and, eleven weeks later, the second Americans (and the second and third humans) in space.
