John Glenn
Did you know I was the first man to control a rocket? I, John Glenn, lived to be a famous space traveler and more! When I was little I would soar planes through the air for fun. I was in WW2 and flew a plane called a B52 Bomber. Then I was accepted by NASA to pilot a spaceshuttle called friendship 7. We orbited the Earth! I became famous all over America. Later I was even elected to be a senator in Washington DC. NASA asked me to go back into space to study the effects of space on older people when I was 77. Now I am the oldest person ever in space! Who knows, maybe someday you can travel to outer space, too!
