Russian pilot, cosmonaut, first cosmonaut in space. Born March 9,

1934 in Klushino Smolensk region. Went to school in 1941, but because of the German occupation in 1943, she continued her education. After moving to the town of Gzhatsk in the biography Gagarin had completed sixth grade. The next step in his education was to enroll in a trade school. Yuri then in 1951 began studies at the industrial technical school of Saratov. In the same city was to visit the flying club, and a year later made its first flight on the Yak-18. In 1957 he graduated from the Orenburg pilot school. After a medical examination, in March 1960 became one of the candidates for cosmonauts. Once the choice fell on him, in the biography of Yury Gagarin happened the greatest event. 12 April 1961 the Vostok spacecraft with Gagarin on Board went to space, made a revolution around the Earth. Thanks to the insistence of Khrushchev, immediately after landing the title Gagarin was promoted from senior Lieutenant to major. He organized a magnificent meeting in Moscow. After the flight Gagarin made a few trips to different countries (Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria, Finland, England) . Then he was a backup the only cosmonaut of "Soyuz-1" is Vladimir Komarov. Flight flights to Gagarin's biography were not abandoned. He sought to restore its qualification as a fighter pilot. 27 March 1968 the great astronaut and a pilot crashed his plane UTI MiG-15, on Board of which was Colonel Vladimir Seregin.

Looked like Yuri Gagarin after the flight into space

spacecraft designed to fly in low earth orbit. Was created

under the leadership of General designer OKB-1 Sergey Pavlovich Korolev from 1958 to 1963. First piloted "Vostok" , launched on 12 April 1961, became the world's first spacecraft that allowed us to manned flight into outer space. The first "Vostok" , piloted by Yury Gagarin made only 1 revolution around the Earth, having flown about our planet for 108 minutes.

April 1961. From TASS: "12 April 1961 the Soviet Union

put into orbit around Earth the world's first spaceship-satellite "Vostok" with a man on Board. Pilot-astronaut spacecraft-satellite "East" is a citizen of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics pilot major Gagarin Yuri Alekseyevich. The start of the space multistage rocket was successful and after I set the first cosmic velocity and separation from the last stage of the carrier rocket ship Sputnik began a free flight on an orbit around the Earth... With cosmonaut comrade Gagarin is established and maintained two-way radio... With radio telemetry and television systems are used to monitor the condition of the astronaut in flight...

the spacecraft "Vostok", in 9 hours 52 minutes Moscow time

pilot cosmonaut major Gagarin being over South America, transmitted: "Flight is proceeding normally, feel good". In 10 hours 15 minutes Moscow time pilot cosmonaut major Gagarin flying over Africa, passed with the spacecraft "Vostok": "Flight is proceeding normally, the zero gravity stand is good". In 10 hours 25 minutes Moscow time, after circling the globe in accordance with a predetermined program, was included braking and propulsion system for space ship-satellite with the pilot-cosmonaut major Gagarin began to descend from orbit to landing in a predetermined area of the Soviet Union. After the successful conduct of planned research and implementation of the programme of flight April 12, 1961, in 10 hours 55 minutes Moscow time the Soviet spaceship Vostok made a safe landing in a predetermined area of the Soviet Union".

two planes: silt-18 and An-10, which arrived the Deputy commander

of the air force Lieutenant-General Agaltsov and a group of journalists. Within three hours while established connection with Moscow, Gagarin gave interview and took pictures. With the appearance of respect, he personally reported to Khrushchev (First Secretary of the Central Committee of the CPSU) and Brezhnev (Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR) about the flight.

accompanying persons boarded the aircraft Il-14, who arrived from Kuibyshev

airport, "Ridge", and flew to Kuybyshev (now Samara). It was decided to avoid the sensation to land not at the airport "Kurumoch", and on the factory airfield "Bezymyanka". But while suppressed the engine and mounted a gangway at the airport already gathered a lot of people (including workers and engineers located near the airfield of factory "Progress", which, incidentally, was released the R-7 rocket, which was launched into space the Vostok spacecraft with Gagarin on Board), arrived city party leadership. When mounted the ladder, first out of the plane of Gagarin, he greeted the audience. Gagarin was taken on individual dacha on the Volga river. There he took a shower and ate normally. Three hours after the arrival in Kuibyshev Gagarin there came the Queens and some more people from the state Board. 9 p.m. set the table and celebrated the successful flight of Gagarin into space.

Юрий Гагарин отправился в свою первую зарубежную поездку. «Миссия мира»,

как иногда называют поездку первого космонавта по странам и континентам, продолжалась два года. Встретиться с ним считали за честь короли и президенты, политические деятели и ученые, артисты и музыканты.
Последующие годы были очень напряженными в жизни Гагарина. Много времени и сил отнимала работа по подготовке новых полетов в космос и учеба в академии. 20 декабря 1963 года Гагарин был назначен заместителем начальника Центра подготовки космонавтов.

June of the same year Gagarin started training on the program "Soyuz". He was assigned as backup Komarov, which made its first flight on the new ship. Flight from-for malfunctions of solar panels was interrupted prematurely, and ended with the death of a cosmonaut due to a failure of the parachute system. It is highly likely that if he were alive Korolev, Gagarin would be the main pilot of "Soyuz-1", as Korolev had promised him a flight on a new ship type. After the break, first solo flight on the MiG-17 Gagarin made in early December 1967. Landed from the second calling because of a wrong calculation on landing, characteristic for pilots of the low growth, had a break in flights. This was the reason for concern of the authorities to lose a popular character in the event of an accident. Yuri Gagarin made great efforts for the implementation of lunar space flight and himself before his death was a member of the crew of one of the preparing lunar ships. Gagarin had no right to fly a fighter jet, although he was the Deputy chief of CTC aviation training, and therefore has made in the direction to restore the qualification as a fighter pilot. Despite his busy schedule, Gagarin found time for Hobbies, which were the water skiing and collecting cacti.
