On February 20th, 1962, John Glenn became the first American to orbit the Earth. On board his
Friendship 7 spacecraft was a Minolta Hi-matic camera to record that
historic event. The 4 hour, 55 minute, and 23 second flight orbited
the Earth three times at an average speed of 28,000 kph (17,500
mph).
Mr. Glenn visited our Sakai camera factory in Japan on May 24th,
1963 to plant a palm tree to celebrate the occasion. The palm tree
is still in the courtyard of the factory and stands over eight meters
tall (26ft).
The camera? It was not lost. It is on display at the Smithsonian
Institution’s National Air and Space Museum in
Washington D.C. This and other objects from John
Glenn’s Friendship 7 Mercury flight can be found in galley
210, “Apollo to the Moon.”
