A member of the Democratic Party, Glenn first won election to the Senate in 1974 and served for 24 years until January 3, 1999.In 1998, still a sitting senator, Glenn was the oldest person to fly in space as a crew member of the Discovery space shuttle and the only person to fly in both the Mercury and Space Shuttle programs. He received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2012.
