MR-1: The Four-Inch Flight 65 years ago today, the first attempt to launch a Mercury capsule on a Redstone rocket (MR-1) took place.

#OTD On this day (November 21) in 1960, Mercury-Redstone 1 took a four-inch flight - the Redstone rocket's engines fired enough to lift it about four inches before the engines cut out.
