The John Glenn Story (1963)

Astronaut John Glen shows President John Kennedy the Friendship Seven space capsule after being awarded a medal by the President on  February 23, 1962.

Former U.S. Senator and Astronaut John Glenn receives the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Barack Obama on May 29, 2012.NASAThis 1963 biographical documentary looks at the early life and professional career of American astronaut John Glenn (before his days in politics).

Several of the people who knew him "back when" in New Concord, Ohio take up a certain amount of time reminiscing on Glenn's boyhood and then the docu segues into the astronaut's preparations for his space flight -- three orbits around the earth, and then home again.

Included are interior shots aboard the Friendship Seven space capsule, and Glenn's comments as he works inside the capsule during this mission.
