Space Shuttle Columbia (OV-102) was the first space shuttle in NASA's orbital fleet. Its first mission, STS-1, lasted from April 12 to April 14, 1981.

On February 1, 2003, Columbia disintegrated during re-entry over Texas, on its 28th mission; all seven crew members aboard perished.

First manned spaceflight was Yuri Gagarin's on a Soviet R-7 rocket in a Soyuz capsule.
