Beregovoy commanded the space mission Soyuz 3 in 1968. Bykovsky flew three manned space mission space flights: Vostok 5, Soyuz 22, and Soyuz 31. Leonov became the first human to conduct extravehicular activity (EVA), exiting the capsule during the Voskhod 2 mission for a 12-minute spacewalk and Tereshkova is the first woman to have flown in space, having been selected to pilot Vostok 6 in June 1963. She completed 48 orbits of the Earth in her three days in space.
