• D. Mercury-Atlas 7
  Mercury-Atlas 7 was a 1962 NASA crewed spaceflight that carried astronaut Scott Carpenter into Earth orbit as part of Project Mercury, advancing the United States’ early human spaceflight efforts.
• E. Mercury-Redstone 4
  Mercury-Redstone 4 was NASA’s second crewed Mercury mission, which carried astronaut Gus Grissom on a suborbital flight in 1961 and is known for the premature hatch blow that led to the loss of the Liberty Bell 7 capsule.
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
