The correct order of key events regarding the exploration of space, beginning with the earliest, is:
- First humans in space (Yuri Gagarin, 1961)
- First humans on the moon (Apollo 11, 1969)
- First lander on Mars (Viking 1, 1976)
- First space shuttle flight (STS-1, 1981)
- Hubble Space Telescope launch (1990)
- Last humans on the moon (Apollo 17, 1972; note: there is no event after Apollo 17 in terms of human exploration of the moon, but if considering timeline of lunar missions, can be interpreted in regards to a succession context).
Based on the provided options, there is no suggested approach in context, but as per standard chronology:
- First humans in space
- First humans on the moon
- First lander on Mars
- First space shuttle flight
- Hubble Space Telescope launch
Thus, none of the lists you provided perfectly fit the sequence, but "first humans on the moon, first lander on Mars, first space shuttle flight" is the closest correct sequence for human exploration and key milestones.
