Yuri Gagarin 60th Anniversary April 12, 2021

Yuri Gagarin's pioneering space flight took place 60 years ago on April 12, 1961.

For SpaceNut ... for some reason, the name of the first human in space was not included in topics of the forum, so I'm hoping it might be noted in future years.

He was promoted to Major something while orbiting the planet...and when a peasant ask his fellow peasant father "Is that Major General Gagarin up there your son?" Gagarin's father replied "No, my son's only a Lieutenant."
