List of spacewalks and moonwalks 1965–1999


This list contains all spacewalks and moonwalks performed from 1965 to 1999 where an astronaut has fully or partially left a spacecraft. Entries for moonwalks are shown with a gray background while entries for all other EVAs are uncolored.
All spacewalks have had the astronauts tethered to their spacecraft except for seven spacewalks by the United States. All moonwalks were performed with astronauts untethered, and some of the astronauts traveled far enough to lose visual contact with their craft. One lunar EVA was not a moonwalk, but rather a stand-up EVA partially out the top hatch of the LM, where it was thought that the extra height would help with surveying the area prior to conducting the moonwalks. Only three deep-space EVAs have ever been conducted, where the activity was neither on the lunar surface nor in low Earth orbit, but far away from both the Moon and the Earth.

Commemorative stamps

The first spacewalk, that of the Soviet cosmonaut Alexei Leonov was commemorated in several Eastern Bloc stamps. Since the Soviet Union did not distribute diagrams or images of the Voskhod 2 spacecraft at the time, the spaceship depiction in the stamps was purely fictional. In 1967 the U.S. Post Office issued a pair of postage stamps commemorating the first American to float freely in space while orbiting the Earth. The engraved image has accurate depiction of the Gemini IV spacecraft and the space suit worn by astronaut Ed White.
Two Forever Stamps were issued in 2019 to commemorate the first spacewalks 50th anniversary. One features an :File:Aldrin Apollo 11 original.jpg|iconic image of Buzz Aldrin performing EVA, and the other of the moon as viewed from Apollo 11 in space.
