This group shot was taken in front of a Convair F106-B aircraft at Langley Air Force Base on January 20, 1961. Inscribed or signed next to their respective images in black felt tip: "We are seven privileged men, Scott Carpen…ter"; "Space is spectacular! Gordon Cooper"; "'Beginnings' John Glenn"; "Wally Schirra A slow Mach II aircraft!"; "It was a pleasure to help start a new era! Alan Shepard"; and "The rudder is still working - DK Slayton." Matted.

In response to the Soviet Union's launch Sputnik 1 satellite on October 4, 1957, President Dwight D. Eisenhower created a new civilian space agency whose primary goal would be to compete with the Soviets in space. The following year Project Mercury was announced, with the stated aim of launching a man into Earth's orbit and returning him safely. The seven astronauts selected for the program, all members of the United States armed forces, were Gus Grissom, Alan Shepard, John Glenn, Jr., Gordon Cooper, Wally Schirra, and D.K. Slayton. In 1962 Glenn would become the first American to orbit the earth, while Grissom would tragically lose his life in the Apollo 1 disaster on January 27, 1967.
