| description | Human spaceflight is sometimes called manned spaceflight. Although the term is now deprecated by major space agencies in favor of its gender-neutral alternative, it has not managed to surpass the popularity with authors, journalists, or the public of terms such as man on the moon. The first human spaceflight was accomplished on April 12, 1961 by Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin. The only countries to have independent human spaceflight capability are Russia, United States and China. As of 2010, human spaceflights are being actively launched by the Soyuz program conducted by the Russian Federal Space Agency, the Space Shuttle program conducted by NASA, and the Shenzhou program conducted by the China National Space Administration. The US will lose governmental human spaceflight launch capability upon retirement of the Space Shuttle, expected in 2011. Under the Bush administration, the Constellation program included plans for canceling the Shuttle and replacing it with the capability for spaceflight beyond low Earth orbit. In the 2011 United States federal budget, the Obama administration proposed canceling Constellation. Under the new plan, NASA would rely on transportation services provided by the private sector, such as Space X's Falcon 9. |
