Can anyone let me know in the order of the list of when and who was inducted into the Astronaut Hall of Fame?

Found this list online. With just a quick glance, I don't see anything that doesn't look right.

Nowadays, at the actual ceremony, the astronauts are inducted in the order of who flew first, but I don't know how far back this policy goes.

I attended both the Mercury and Gemini induction ceremonies and the astronauts were inducted in the order of the mission chronology. I have photos of both ceremonies to back this up.

I was at every ceremony since Gemini. (The benefit of living next door)

Joel is correct that they were announced in the order in which they flew.

Many thanks to these people who have responded to my question regarding astronauts inducted into Hall of Fame, now I fully understand how it works.

I would love to see photos of astronauts inducted into Hall of Fame, especially my hero John Young...

...with the exception of Roger Chaffee, to my knowledge the only unflown astronaut to have been inducted.
