任务简介
水星-红石1号(MR-1)是水星计划中首次水星-红石无人飞行测试,也是首次尝试用水星-红石运载火箭发射水星飞船。原计划为一次无人亚轨道太空飞行,于1960年11月21日从佛罗里达州卡纳维拉尔角空军基地发射。发射以异常方式失败:水星-红石火箭开始移动后立即自行关闭并落回发射台,随后太空舱弹射了逃逸火箭并展开了回收降落伞。这次失败被称为“四英寸飞行”,指运载火箭移动的大致距离。
原文
Mercury-Redstone 1 (MR-1) was the first Mercury-Redstone uncrewed flight test in Project Mercury and the first attempt to launch a Mercury spacecraft with the Mercury-Redstone Launch Vehicle. Intended to be an uncrewed sub-orbital spaceflight, it was launched on November 21, 1960 from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida. The launch failed in abnormal fashion: immediately after the Mercury-Redstone rocket started to move, it shut itself down and settled back on the pad, after which the capsule jettisoned its escape rocket and deployed its recovery parachutes. The failure has been referred to as the "four-inch flight", for the approximate distance traveled by the launch vehicle.
