Tarihi uzay u\u00e7u\u015funun ard\u0131ndan Glenn, NASA ile \u00e7al\u0131\u015fmaya devam etti. 1998’de uzay meki\u011fi Discovery’nin m\u00fcrettebat\u0131na kat\u0131ld\u0131 ve D\u00fcnya atmosferinin d\u0131\u015f\u0131na \u00e7\u0131kan en ya\u015fl\u0131 Amerikal\u0131 oldu. Astronotluk kariyerinin yan\u0131 s\u0131ra Glenn, 24 y\u0131l boyunca Ohio’dan ABD senat\u00f6r\u00fc olarak g\u00f6rev yapt\u0131. Uzay ara\u015ft\u0131rmalar\u0131n\u0131n g\u00fc\u00e7l\u00fc bir savunucusuydu ve Mars ve Ay’a ula\u015fma hedefleriyle yeni ve cesur uzay program\u0131na devam etmek istiyordu.<\/p>\n\n
