Essay "The first human in space"

The first human in space.

        One day, the whole world learned the name of the Soviet pilot and the first person to visit space. Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin-cosmonaut, who on April 12, 1961, on the Vostok-1 spacecraft, became the first person to orbit the Earth.

        Currently, the time period of 108 minutes does not seem impressive, but this space journey was legendary 60 years ago, it was a new step forward for all of humanity. After returning to Earth, Gagarin was introduced to the public as an international hero. First, the cosmonaut was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. Secondly, the title of Hero of Socialist Labor and other awards. He became an honorary citizen in 6 countries.

        In conclusion, the life of the hero was not long, he died in an accident, which led to problems with the engines. Some details of the accident and operation look so suspicious and mysterious that some people still believe that it was not an accidental accident, but a premeditated murder. Gagarin's feat will always remain in my memory.
