NASA's Project Mercury liftoff on October 3, 1962.

This recording was made by Nelson Doubleday, Inc. and Vox Productions, Inc. on location at Cape Canaveral specially for Metropolitan Life Insurance Company

Astronaut Walter M. Schirra is the son of stunt flier parents. He's always been intrigued with speed. The 39-year-old Commander, speaking from space, makes this recording a memorable audio-adventure. Your Metropolitan man, also an articulate spokesman, has some down-to-earth facts your family should hear soon. Meanwhile, enjoy these gripping, historic moments with our compliments.
