Title Time Capsule Placed at Mercury 7 Monument Alternative Title Mercury 7Time Capsule Subject Cape Canaveral (Fla.) Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (Fla.) National Aeronautics and Space Administration (U.S.) NASA Project Mercury (U.S.) Marine Corps Monuments--United States Description The time capsule is located at the Mercury 7 Monument, which was placed at the entrance to Cape Canaveral Air Force Station Launch Complex 14 (LC-14). Contents of the time capsule are said to include John Glenn's (b. 1921) Marine Corps pilot wings, capsule blueprints, and photographic film documentation. Standing to the head of the site is a sculpture of the emblem of Project Mercury. The "7" signifies the original 7 Mercury astronauts, known as the Original Seven and Astronaut Group 1. The astronauts were Alan Shepard (1923-1998), Gus Grissom (1926-1967), John Glenn, Scott Carpenter (1925-2013), Wally Schirra (1923-2007), Gordon Cooper (1927-2004), and Deke Slayton.<br /><br />The marker, which was not in place when the photograph was taken, quotes President John F. Kennedy (1917-1963): "One of the most complex tasks ever presented to man in this country...the achievement of manned flight in orbit around the Earth." President Kennedy requested that the time capsule be opened 500 years, hence in 2464. Type Still Image Source Original black and white photographic print: Private Collection of Dr. Calvin D. Fowler.
