 | | Carpenter is also said to have seen and photographed a UFO during his Mercury - Aurora 7 flight of May 24, 1962, and that the photo never turned up after the film was processed. |
| | He was assigned as Air Intelligence Officer to the Aircraft Carrier U.S.S. He then joined NASA on April 2, 1959, piloted his Aurora 7 spacecraft through three revolutions of the earth, with a duration of 0.21 days and left in 1967. |
| | This was later clearly established during following spaceflights, and particularly when Carpenter on board Mercury 7 [3]: accidentally hitting the capsule's wall, he inadvertently started the take-off of the same fireflies. |
