Every country that used to belong to the Soviet Union marks April 12 as the day when, in 1961, the first man went into orbit around our planet. It was Yuri Gagarin, who became a world-famous charismatic figure. However, it was just an episode in the epic competition between the USSR and the USA for the world domination known as "SPACE RACE". You know who won it. Vlad KUZMENKO published an article about this period in The Hyde Park bulletin. You can find it HERE . However, his article did not contain some facts that the editor (guess who?) considered to be important. That's why a dovetailing factfile was published. You can enjoy it by clicking HERE .
