" Guion "Guy" Bluford became the first black person to go into space. He was on the Space Shuttle Challenger's STS 8 mission, launched on August 30, 1983.

The first black woman was Mae Jemison. "

Guion "Guy" Bluford was NOT the 1st Black Person in space, he WAS the 1st African-American.

In 1980, the 1st Black person in space was Arnaldo Tamayo Mendez, a Cuban.
