There have been many instances in history where the British went ahead and conquered many nations, and it now seems as though the sky is not the limit. Astronaut, Major Tim Peake (43), became the first Briton to embark on a mission outside the International Space Station.
The Union Jack officially made its place in space for the first time on Friday 15th January 2016. Nasa states that the first British spacewalk was a success, despite it being terminated over Col Tim Kopra's leaking helmet.
Col Kopra (52), had reported that a bubble of water started to increase in his helmet, and how the absorbent head pad became wet.
Regardless of all the obstacles, the Union Jack proudly 'flies' in space, which is, indeed, a remarkable achievement for Great Britain.
