WHAT DOES MANNED SPACE FLIGHT MEAN IN ENGLISH?

manned space flight

Human spaceflight

Human spaceflight is space travel with humans aboard spacecraft. When a spacecraft is manned, it can be piloted directly, as opposed to machine or robotic space probes controlled remotely by humans or through automatic methods on board the spacecraft. Humans have been continually present in space for 700113000000000000013 years and 7002234000000000000234 days on the International Space Station. The first manned spaceflight was launched by the Soviet Union on 12 April 1961 as a part of the Vostok program, with cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin aboard. Since 2011 Russia and China maintain human spaceflight capability independent of international cooperation. The friendship between Russia and the United States was so successful that the United States has been using the Russian capability in between the retirement of its Space Shuttle and its planned capabilities such as Orion. As of 2014, human spaceflights are only launched by the Soyuz program conducted by the Russian Federal Space Agency and the Shenzhou program conducted by the China National Space Administration. The United States lost human spaceflight launch capability upon retirement of the space shuttle in 2011.
