Original Note:
While Yuri Gagarin's flight is a well-documented event in space history. NASA typically recognizes Alan Shepard as the first American to travel into space. However, they (and all space agengies) acknowledge Yuri Gagarin's accomplishment as the first human to orbit the Earth. https://www.nasa.gov/image-article/april-1961-first-human-entered-space/
