No Go: Project Mercury Missions and Spacecraft That Never Left Earth A resource for creative space modelers and amateur space historians ?2001 by Roger E. Moore Created June 26, 2001 Fifth update: November 20, 2001 Comments, updates, additions, and corrections are welcome. Please send them to: roger70129@ Utility This document gives the locations and conditions of unflown Mercury spacecraft (s/c) that can be studied for improving the accuracy of Mercury space models, especially late-model designs like “Faith 7.” Unusual Mercury designs, configurations, and missions that were considered but never used are also detailed, giving an idea of the range of possibilities once envisioned for this historic vehicle. Unique models of these “might have been” missions can be researched and documented for accuracy, then used in space model competitions, science fairs, museum settings, and home displays. Special sections have been added to this document describing famous Mercury missions from fiction, resources for creating scale models of unflown Mercury configurations, and a close examination of one unflown Mercury capsule, s/c 17, now on display at the USAF Museum in Dayton, Ohio. Background: Preliminary Mercury Designs When Project Mercury came into official existence (November 26, 1958), the physical design of a one-man American spacecraft was already undergoing considerable evolution. A variety of competing man-in-space projects, most from the military, were proposed and examined before NASA was created on October 1, 1958. Nearly all of these preliminary projects (e.g., U.S. Army’s Project Adam suborbital capsule, U.S. Navy’s MER inflatable glider, Avco’s Kantrowitz Drag Brake Satellite, North American’s orbital X-15, and the USAF’s extensive Project 7969) were cancelled when NASA immediately gained control over the man-in-space issue. One such project survived only by becoming exclusively military in nature (USAF’s X-20 Dyna-Soar). A variety of spacecraft s
