If you’re looking for a good movie about Yuri Gagarin, I highly recommend Gagarin: First in Space! It covers Yuri Gagarin’s life from childhood through his fist space flight with quite a few time jumps and flashbacks. I absolutely adore the young actor that plays Yuri and the camaraderie between Yuri and the other cosmonauts in training is so sweet. Obviously it’s probably not 1000% accurate, but overall it’s a very compelling movie with an amazing narrative.

Like just look at him!

Celebration of the 90th birth anniversary of Yuri Gagarin.

 Yuri Gagarin paved the way for human space exploration by completing the first manned spaceflight On April 12, 1961!; On April 19, 2024, the Reserve Center of the Presidential Library in Moscow hosted an International Scientific and Educational festival on the topic: "Yuri Gagarin - the Hero of Our Time", dedicated to the 90th anniversary of the birth of Hero of the Soviet Union, test pilot Yuri A. Gagarin. The festival is organized by the autonomous non-profit organization "Unikalny mir" with the support of the administration of Vologda region.

The event was attended by representatives of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, the Moscow City Duma, representatives of the CIS Executive Committee, Russian cosmonauts, as well as regional public and political figures.

The main purpose of the festival is to present Yuri A. Gagarin as a hero of our time, as well as to tell about outstanding Soviet scientists who made a significant contribution to space exploration and the development of related sciences and industries in the USSR.

During the event, the modern achievements of the Russian Federation in the field of cosmonautics (including manned one) development, as well as the use of virtual reality in the process of cosmonaut training were disscussed. Also, topics of promising Russian developments and techniques in the field of engineering and technological education were considered.

At the same time, the festival included in-person visits to Armenia, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan by test cosmonauts of the Roscosmos detachment, who took part in the festival in an online format from these countries.

In Dushanbe, the capital of Tajikistan, Hero of the Russian Federation, test cosmonaut Peter Dubrov visited the Gagarin Russian-Tajik School, where he held a Gagarin lesson and told students and teachers about his experience of training and space flight. In Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan, Hero of the Russian Federation, test cosmonaut Sergei Korsakov held a meeting with students of the Kyrgyz Aviation Institute. In Yerevan, the capital of Armenia, test cosmonaut Harutyun Kiviryan held a lesson at the Armenian University for students from Armenia, Iran and Georgia.

The festival is aimed at developing and strengthening cooperation between the CIS countries in the field of engineering and technological education, as well as increasing the interest of young people in research, engineering developments in the field of astronautics and Earth exploration.

The Russian House in Dhaka in cooperation with the Bangladesh Astronomical Association organized the 90th birth anniversary of Yuri Gagarin,

I...I'm not sure I can explain why this hit me so hard but.

Yuri Gagarin was the first human to Orbit the Earth in 1961. In 1967, the Soyuz 1 crashed on reentry, killing cosmonaut Vladamir Komarov, when the parachute lines tangled. Gagarin had been the back up pilot, and was banned from future space flight after since the USSR didn't want their national hero to also die in a fiery crash.

Less than a year later, he died in a plane crash. (A test flight for a new fighter jet.)

A year after that, the Apollo 11 astronauts set foot on the moon.

They brought with them a little satchel to leave as a memorial. In it were medals to honor Gagarin and Koramov, along with patches for Apollo 1 and the three astronauts who died on that mission.

And something about that just...
