The 12th of April marked the anniversary of the first manned space flight in 1961. It was an important day for the Soviet Union, and for Yuri Gagarin, the first cosmonaut, a farmer’s son and father of two. The world quickly got to know the face of the smiling Russian in his space suit standing beside Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev, receiving flowers and honors.

The Soviet Union has many official heroes, but Gagarin is perhaps one of the most genuinely popular. A large number of boys received the name Yuri in his honor, and thousands of them dreamt of following in his footsteps. Gagarin was young, courageous and appealing, the ordinary boy who dazzled the world with his exploit. He became an instant Soviet celebrity, people turned to him for help and flooded him with letters.

His life cut short in a tragic plane crash in 1968.

These days the Russian space program survives by letting foreign cosmonauts spend time at the Mir space station for a fat fee. Being a cosmonaut these days seems like a lot of risk and hard work for little money and the conquest of space is hardly high on the Russian government’s list of priorities at this moment.

And nonetheless, Gagarin remains a twentieth century hero. More than any cold war era triumph in the rivalry between two systems, it was a symbol of human triumph.

12 апреля ознаменовало годовщину первого пилотируемого полета в космос в 1961 году. Это был важный день для Советского Союза, и для Юрия Гагарина, первого космонавта, сына фермера и отца двоих детей. Мир быстро узнал лицо улыбающегося русского человека в космическом костюме, стоящего рядом с советским лидером Никитой Хрущевым, получая цветы и почести.

У Советского Союза много официальных героев, но Гагарин, пожалуй, остается одним из самых популярных. Очень много мальчиков получило имя Юрия в его честь, и тысячи из них мечтали быть похожим на него. Гагарин был молодым, мужественным и привлекательным, обычным мальчиком, который ослепил мир своим подвигом. Он тот час стал советской знаменитостью, люди обращались к нему за помощью и забрасывали его письмами.

Его жизнь прервалась в результате трагически в авиакатастрофе в 1968 году.

В эти дни российская космическая программа выживает, позволяя иностранным космонавтам проводить время на космической станции «Мир» за хорошую плату. Быть космонавтом в эти дни, кажется, большим риском и тяжелой работой за небольшие деньги, а завоевание космоса едва ли есть в списке приоритетов российского правительства на данный момент.

И тем не менее, Гагарин остается героем двадцатого века. Более чем соперничество в эпохе «холодной войны» между двумя системами, это был символ человеческого триумфа.
