Today, April 12, 1961, the Soviet Union launched into orbit around the earth, the world's first spacecraft-the Vostok satellite, with a man on board!
Today we have been flying into space for 61 years!
I congratulate everyone on Cosmonautics Day!

the soviet union isn't working with NASA anymore, so the ISS will deorbit after the crew escape
