Gagarin download biography
Take it to the sun itself and return home soon the beginning of the second half of the twentieth century was marked by the exit of a person into space. The desire for stars, which arose many millennia ago, began to come true. Our homeland was the first to open the way to the stars. Gagarin made the world's first flight around our planet, revealed to humanity the boundless expanses of the universe.
During this time, the astronautics went from artificial Earth satellites to lunar and interplanetary automatic stations, from single spacecraft to large orbital stations with replaced crews, from the simplest experiments in space to fundamental research in the interests of science and the national economy. The first flight of a person into space has become one of their most significant events of the twentieth century.
The flight of Yu. Gagarin lasted about 1 hour 48 minutes. During this time, on the Vostok spacecraft, Gagarin flew around the globe, thereby setting three absolute world space records at once: the flight duration - 7 kilometers and the record of the maximum useful cargo raised to this height - kilograms. This flight itself is unique. Despite the short duration, he was the first, and it was proved that a person can live and work in space.
So who is Yuri Gagarin - the first cosmonaut Planet Earth, the fearless knight of Cosmos, the glorious son of our Motherland, a man whose feat and smile conquered our entire planet? Yuri was born in Smolensk, in the village of Klushino on March 9 in the year in a simple peasant family. He ran through the puddles with village boys. In the spring, when the snow went, the children launched a paper snake, and Yura, running after him, thought: “I would also fly with him.” In the year, the Gagarin family moves to the Gzhatsk district center now the city of Gagarin.
Here, with honors, he graduates from an incomplete secondary school and enters the Lyubertsy craft school in the suburbs. At one time he studied at the school of working youth. Having received the profession of a molding molder, Yuri enters the Saratov Industrial and Pedagogical College. He is seriously interested in sports. But aviation and aircraft attract it irresistibly. In the fourth year of the technical school, he enters the Saratov flying club, where very experienced pilots become its mentors.
It was the aero club that played a decisive role in choosing the future path. Here he made his first independent flight on a small plane of the Yak and finally Baikonur. It was difficult to choose among strong and courageous people who passed long -term training and burning with a desire to carry out this flight. But gradually one person stood out - senior lieutenant Yu.
Doctors, mechanics, and coaches came together. He successfully passed the tests in the cord -chamber, on a rapid centrifuge and in flights with temporary weightlessness. He showed indestructible perseverance, inexhaustible optimism, selfless patriotism. In addition to excellent health, he possessed a great will to victory, endurance, determination, hard work.
And now - the day of the start is April 12th. On the astronaut, an orange spacesuit, on the head white helmets with red letters "USSR". Having said a few words to be guessing him, he rises into the cabin of the ship. The countdown of time begins. The famous Gagarinskoye “Let's go! List of literature Gagarin Yu. Gagarin V. Gagarin is the most ordinary guy from planet Earth.
It is amazing how his life harmoniously developed. His fate was torn from thousands and millions of fate of the era and turned the tip towards the stars. The fact that such a person visited the first in space gives all humanity to some mystical hope. He was the most ordinary and at the same time unusual in his usualness, strong-and weak, where a person needs not strength, but weakness, not the wise, but feeling some main, natural truth of life.
No matter how much they write about Gagarin, everyone repeats the same thing: accident, accident! He was not the best pilot, the squadron commanders did not give their best pilots to some kind of cosmonaut detachment there, he was small, that for the pilot it was not the best complexion but for the astronauts was only required-the first spacecraft was very close, he did not get some special higher education in the year of the Saratov Industrial College, and only in the Rostov airborne.
was not the first and not the last. But what the head of the aero club recalls: no matter how many times the correspondents of local newspapers come to write about the best pilots, outstanding achievements - they always paid attention to Gagarin, photographed and interviewed him, it would seem, in an unreasonable and unremarkable guy. And in the same way, all twenty candidates for astronauts gathered in the star town were convinced from the very beginning that it was Gagarin who would fly the first.
And they could not explain why. But when shortly before the flight they were interviewed, to whom to fly, they all did not say a word named one surname. Some kind of incomprehensible magic.The wife said that at the first acquaintance, she did not pay attention to him at all and was surprised when he appointed her a date. And I could not understand why the date came for this.
The same as everyone, simple, in no way outstanding, invisible, ordinary and yet-the only one. Its simplicity and openness, an indescribable smile, shyness, behind which the inner dignity was felt, as if some ideal balance of the human in man was constituted. And this balance was such that it was felt for a person of any nation and any culture. Indians, Europeans, Americans, Africans - everyone felt Gagarin for their own.
After the flight, he had to, perhaps, the most difficult test - a test of fame. And it was the hardest thing to pass. There are many stories about how Gagarin felt awkward, becoming a legend during his lifetime. In essence, only one thing saved. They wrote and talked about her most about her. Perhaps the speeches that Gagarin said, someone else wrote for him.
Perhaps articles in newspapers, interviews were also done under dictation. The smile was its own. We still very poorly understand our time. It seems to us that they are controlled by a mass of secret forces and accidents. Gloomy rulers, great technical sensations, money, struggle for power and a person flew into space and became a legend for the whole earth only thanks to one smile.
And this is not an accident. Nowadays, the time of pragmatic revelations and draft sensations, perhaps, Yuri Gagarin remained the most ideal hero of the past, Soviet history. To say a word against him means saying a word against yourself. Because Yuri Gagarin is a collective image, a collective name. Not in the sense that this image is composed of our illusions and ideas, but in the fact that everyone would like to be the same deep down.
And yet, perhaps, this name is collective in a different meaning: this is such a nodule that is now binded by history, it is a sign of indisputable great achievements, that good and kind that without a doubt our homeland gave the whole world in the twentieth century. List of literature Kiselev A. Walners of Cosmos. Mitroshenkov V. Earth under the sky: Chronicle of Life Yu.

So the word "astronaut" appeared. The flight of Yuri Gagarin is a great conquest, the greatest victory of the Soviet man. People rejoiced, rejoiced, but then they said: this is not enough! Scientists, astronauts will continue to conduct an offensive on the secrets of nature, "conquering all the near -blue space," as the great Tsiolkovsky predicted. So a person is arranged.
He cannot stop there. He will never calm down on his desire to know the whole world around him, the entire universe. In the name of this dream, Yuri Gagarin lived, in the name of this dream, the first citizen of the Universe committed his feat.

It was then that the words were pronounced for the first time: Hero of the Soviet Union.
