Юрий Гагарин. Как это было. Первый человек в космосе

The first cosmonaut, a legendary man. In the 60 years that have passed since the first flight into space, we seem to know everything about Yuri Gagarin. In reality, the great flight and Gagarin's personality are still being revealed from... new interesting perspectives.
In this book, you will learn about nine emergencies that occurred during the "Vostok-1" flight; why the landing site and method were classified; what gifts were given to the cosmonaut for the flight, as well as all the versions of the tragic death. The book compiles all the publications of "Komsomolskaya Pravda" about the first cosmonaut of the planet over the course of six decades. From the first report written by the famous Vasily Peskov on April 12, 1961, and the interview of Yaroslav Golovanov to the investigations into the causes of the crash of the UTI MiG-15 airplane on March 27, 1968, in which Yuri Gagarin and his instructor Vladimir Seryogin died, prepared already in the 2000s. The reader will find memories of meetings with Yuri Alekseyevich, amateur photos, and stories that are not always confirmed in Gagarin's official biography.
