Manned flight at first

Human beings went to the universe for the first time about 50 years ago. What went to space in human beings is Yuri Gagarin. Probably I think you have heard his name. All the astronauts by today will respect him from the bottom of their heart. Today I'm going to talk about too much great his story.

 

When it was decided that a world's first manned space flight will be performed, Gagarin and German Titov were selected as a pilot's candidate. Before, Gagarin aspired to the pilot and went to Air Force Academy. Two persons were that the result of the examination was excellent and were not tall. The early spacecraft was very small and it was difficult for a large human being to ride. Gagarin was chosen as a result of the final selection. This is because Gagarin is with mild and social character, is the Russia name of "Yuri", and is easy to emphasize the point of the hero of a working class graduate.

 

On April 12, 1961, Gagarin succeeded in the world's first manned space flight by Vostok 3kA-2. Gagarin is said to have hummed the song of "hearing the homeland" and　encouraged himselves during the flight. This song was often sung by singing cafe in Japan. Although media reported later that Gagarin said during the flight, "God is not even if it looks", no record about it is nothing.

The spacecraft which picked up Gagarin went into the orbit around the earth, carried out outer atmosphere 1 round in 1 hour and about 50 minutes, and returned to the pasture in Russia. Although it landed with the spacecraft at the time, the pilot was ejected with seat from the capsule at an altitude of 7000 m and descend by a parachute one person in fact, and it involved a big risk.

 

Then, since Gagarin became a flight commander, he resumed flight training. However, it fell to its death during the flight on March 27, 1968 by MiG-15UTI which boarded with the instructor. He was 34 years old. Although the cause of the accident had been unknown for a long time. According to the material for investigation announced in 1986, Su-11 interceptor which was flying with high-speed of the neighborhood, and a possibility of it was involved in the shock wave and operated impossible was also suggested. Although the rumor that Gagarin was drinking at the time of boarding also flowed, he has passed the medical checkup before a flight and it had not found at all the proof which shows drinking also by investigation conducted after death.

Since it was bad weather at the time of a flight, Gagarin and an instructor also had the opinion that reorganization of the body was impossible. With the new theory announced in 2005, whether the vent of the cockpit broke down, or it remained opening by the former passenger's mistake. And oxygen will begin to leak from there, it will be in a hypoxic condition, and they suppose that consciousness was lost and it fell into the operation impossible state.

 

Nobody thought that a great person died to such this.
