1961: Mercury MR-BD was launched. It was an unmanned test of the Redstone-Mercury composite. It was launched instead of Mercury MR-3A, what was supposed to be Alan Shepard's flight into space, which was cancelled. Von Braun persisted that they went ahead with one last test before a manned flight. If MR-3A was launched instead, Alan Shepard would've been the first man in space.
1975: After running out of fuel, Mariner 10 was deactivated.
1992: STS-45 and its crew of 7 launched into orbit on a 9-day mission. It carried with it the ATLAS-1 experiment package on-board the ship.

1912: Wernher von Braun was born. He was the chief pedant rocket scientist during World War II, designing the V2 missile. After the war, he was transferred to the United States where he worked on early US missiles including the Redstone and Jupiter missiles. He was transferred to the NASA team to help design the Saturn rockets to take the US to the Moon.

It was the first manned flight of the Gemini spacecraft. After three orbits, the crew made the first manual reentry. As a prank, Young took a corned beef sandwich on the spacecraft with him.

1965: Voskhod 2 and its crew of 2 landed back at Earth. The failure of the service module to separate after retrofire caused the spacecraft to go off course during reentry. The tie-down straps burned through and the module separated. The spacecraft and the crew landed in a heavy forest in the Ural mountains surrounded by wolves. Recovery crews got to the Voskhod crew two days later.
1990: The Japanese Hiten did a flyby of the Moon.
2006: The Cassini did a flyby of the moon Titan.
