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. |

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