# Mission - Aurora 7

Fifty years later, the flight of the fourth American in space (and second to orbit the Earth) is celebrated in this video tribute to Mercury astronaut Scott Carpenter produced by NASA Television. \[This video appears on YouTube under the titles Scott Carpenter & Aurora 7 and Aurora 7 and Scott Carpenter but is titled Mission: Aurora 7 on screen. The Aurora 7 patch that appears at the beginning and end of the video (see File:Aurora 7 patch.png) was not the mission logo at the time; crewed NASA missions did not have official mission patches until Gemini 5.\]
