Shepard's flight was on May 5, 1961.

It lasted 15 minutes. Shepard had been considered a prime candidate for the job of piloting a two-man Gemini capsule, the job which was assigned today to astronaut Virgil I. Grissom. Shepard is under treatment and responding well to it, Berry said. Earlier this year, Shepard underwent surgery for removal of part of his thyroid gland.

He recovered satisfactorily from the operation. They emphasized that the inner ear inflammation, known as labyrinthitis has nothing to do with Shepard's sub-orbital space flight that made him the first American in space three years ago. The ailment was believed responsible for Shepard's failure to be named as a project Gemini space pilot. Shepard, 40, suffered some hearing loss on his left ear and has experienced some dizziness. He is not hospitalized.
