The success of Korabl-Sputnik 5 was the final step required to get approval for a manned mission. That manned mission, known as Vostok 1, would occur on about April 12, 1961, carrying the world's first space traveller, Yuri Gagarin. The spacecraft Gagarin used was a nearly identical model, called Vostok 3KA-3. A major difference between the 3KA-2 and 3KA-3 spacecraft was that the 3KA-2 version, like all unmanned Vostok spacecraft, was equipped with a self-destruct system, in the event it reentered the atmosphere over foreign territory.

In August 1957 the Soviet Union tested the world's first successful Intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), the R7 Semyorka. Within only two months of the launch of the Semyorka, Sputnik 1 became the first man made object in Earth's orbit. This was followed by the launch of Sputnik II which carried Laika the first living space traveller though she did not survive the trip. This led to the creation of the Vostok programme in 1960 and the first living creatures to survive the trip to space, Belka and Strelka the Soviet space dogs.

In South Africa, the list was headed by Nelson Mandela, a predictable and obvious popular choice, given his global stature as a statesman and symbol of post-apartheid liberation and reconciliation. Other popular choices ranged from Professor Christiaan Barnard, the pioneering heart surgeon, to General Jan Smuts, wartime Prime Minister and co-founder of the League of Nations, to Shaka Zulu, the 19th Century warrior leader of the Zulu Nation, to Internet entrepreneur and civilian space traveller Mark Shuttleworth. Two days after the list was announced, Nelson Mandela had already received several thousands of votes more than any other candidate.

The rollout of Soyuz TMA-15 on 25 May, with an American flag painted on the capsule Soyuz TMA-15 was launched successfully by a Soyuz-FG carrier rocket from Site 1/5 at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, at 10:34 UTC on 27 May 2009. It docked with the ISS at 12:34 UTC on 29 May 2009. Roman Romanenko was the third second- generation space traveller. He was reported to have chosen Taymyr () as the mission callsign because it was the callsign on his father's first flight, Soyuz 26; however, the callsign Parus ( meaning Sail) was used for communications with the spacecraft.

In Damon Knight's A For Anything, Leroy Platt uses a matter duplicator to make food; "Eating the food, too: Why not? Just put it through twice, make sure you don't get any reversed peptide chains." In Stanislaw Lem's The Star Diaries, The Eight Voyage, fictional space traveller Ijon Tichy finds out, that the life on Earth emerged by accident, from the rotten food that two irresponsible starship pilots disposed on Earth' bare and then-lifeless surface. They stirred the waste using coal shovel and poker both twisted to the left, which is the reason, why all life on Earth has evolved to have left-handed amino acids.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy was a concept for a science-fiction comedy radio series pitched by Adams and radio producer Simon Brett to BBC Radio 4 in 1977. Adams came up with an outline for a pilot episode, as well as a few other stories (reprinted in Neil Gaiman's book Don't Panic: The Official Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Companion) that could be used in the series. Towel Day 2005 in Innsbruck, Austria, where Adams first had the idea of The Hitchhiker's Guide. In the novels, a towel is the most useful thing a space traveller can have. The annual Towel Day (25 May) was first celebrated in 2001, two weeks after Adams's death.

Computers are present but by no means universal, and even a manufacturing company (Feriste Precision Instruments, of Olliphane) that might be expected to have access to sophisticated technology instead keeps its records on paper and card index. However, some other instrumentation is very advanced; a space traveller can examine a planet's surface from orbit by "macroscope" and test the planet's biosphere for harmful micro-organisms before emerging from his ship. A kind of "black box" recorder known only as a "monitor" can record a spacecraft's voyages on a coded filament, enabling subsequent travellers to retrace the craft's wanderings. These are commonly used by "locators", spacefarers who search for habitable planets; such a filament is important in the plot of The Star King.

However Salyut 6 was not occupied continuously, or "handed off" from one expedition to another. Rather, the six resident crews took up occupancy in the station and were visited by various Soyuz support missions and Progress supply tugs, and upon each resident crew's departure, Salyut 6 was vacant. The first long-duration crew to visit the station broke a long- standing endurance record set on board the American Skylab station, staying 96 days in orbit, whilst the longest expedition lasted 185 days. Most of the visiting expeditions were flown as part of the Intercosmos programme, with non-Soviet cosmonauts visiting the station. Vladimír Remek of Czechoslovakia, the first space traveller not from the US or USSR, visited Salyut 6 in 1978, and the station hosted cosmonauts from Hungary, Poland, Romania, Cuba, Mongolia, Vietnam, and East Germany.
