view China Aerospace "God 15 and God 14 astronauts have achieved "space meeting" for the first time. In addition to being excited, I remembered again a chronicle and some collections in my Soviet art literature search -
"Soviet Space Industry and the Legend of Gagarin" At around 10:30 am on March 27, 1968, a huge explosion sounded near the Vladimir New Village in the suburbs of Moscow . The frightened villagers followed the explosion and searched, but they said Within a few kilometers of the explosion site, it was blocked by the government's troops soon after. Since the Chikarovsky Space Field is next to the new village of Vladimir, villagers who were a little familiar with the situation made a guess: Did an aircraft crash? Yes, there was indeed an aircraft crash, and it was an MiG-15 fighter . However, not only the villagers would not think of, but people in the world would not think of: who was killed with the crashed plane. It was Gagarin . It was Yury, the first astronaut to enter space in human history. Alekseyevich Gagarin). That year, Gagarin was 34 years old. Yuri Alexeyevich Gagarin was born on March 9, 1934 in a collective farm villager's family in Klusino Town, Gezaksk District, Smolensk Prefecture, Soviet Union. He was a Belarusian. Patriotic War accompanied him through his childhood, and that was when he wanted to become an air force pilot. As an adult, he became a worker and participated in the Saratov Aviation Club The club. He liked the feeling of flying a plane into the blue sky so he quit his job and went to study at the Aurenburg Air Force School. If he had not encountered the Soviet space program, Gagarin became an outstanding air force pilot at most, and it was the time that gave him the opportunity to fly higher and farther. Since the 1930s, the Soviet Union launched a series of projects collectively known as the "Space Program", including launch vehicle and space exploration. Due to the involvement of military secrets, the space program was implemented in covertly. Soviet space The plan initially hired captured German V-2 rocket project scientists, which were mainly carried out by Soviet engineers and scientists after 1955. Sergei Pavlovich Korolev is the main person in charge of the design team, and his official title is "Chief Designer". Due to the confidential status and publicity value of the plan, the announcement of the mission results was postponed until it was confirmed to be successful, and failed projects were often kept confidential. In the 1980s, Gorbachev was launched after he took office. The policy of release has led to the decryption of many facts about the space program. From the 1930s to the collapse of , the Soviet Union's space program has achieved a series of world-renowned achievements, including: ●The first intercontinental ballistic missile —R-7●The first artificial satellite —Sputnik 1●The first animal to enter space—the puppy "Lycra" of Sputnik 2 ●The first astronaut to enter outer space and center orbit - board the "Oriental 1" Yuri Gagarin ● The first space station - Salute 1 ● The first interstellar probe Gagarin was finally selected to represent the Soviet Union and even the entire human race to enter space for the first time, not only because of his extraordinary qualities, but also because of the selection criteria of the chief designer of the manned spacecraft, Korolev . After Sputnik 2 successfully sent the puppy "Lycra" into space, the Soviet Union began to select the first astronaut to go to heaven. But when it comes to where to find the right personnel, the people involved in the decision-making had one opinion: some advocates from mountaineering team members, some advocates from submarine , and some suggests that exploration team members participate... But the final consensus is to choose from pilots. In Korolev's words, "Complete adventurous and complex tasks is a habitual responsibility for pilots. "Yevgeny Karpov, the official in charge of selecting astronauts, recalled that the standard for astronauts proposed by Korolev at that time was that he was only 30 years old, no more than 1.75 meters tall, and weighed less than 72 kilograms. He was diligent and had a strong desire to learn, and had the intention to devote himself to aerospace .Based on this, Gagarin, who is only 1.59 meters tall, became one of the 20 volunteers selected to participate in the training, and finally became one of the members of the "6-person assault team". The "6-man assault team" was sent to a new small town called the "Star City" in the Chikarov district, about 40 kilometers northeast of the center of Moscow for aerospace training. They received a series of rigorous training 4-5 weightless training, more than 40 skydiving training, and 95 centrifuge experiments and other rigorous training. After training, Gagarin was listed as the third candidate among the six. However, then Soviet leader Khrushchev instructed that the first astronaut to enter space must be Russians. As a result, the Ukrainian Titov, who had better conditions, could only serve as a reserve astronaut, while Gagarin became the first space messenger due to Korolev's recommendation. It is said that during the training period, Gagarin attracted Korolev's attention. At 9:7 Moscow time on April 12, 1961, 27-year-old Yuri Gagarin took off on the "Oriental 1" spacecraft and entered space orbit at the scheduled time. He flew around the earth for 108 minutes and returned to the ground, completing the feat of humanity's first advance into space. The news that the Soviets sent people into space for the first time shocked the whole world. As the first astronaut to enter space in human history, Gagarin instantly became a well-known space hero in the world. After returning to Earth, Gagarin was warmly welcomed by all the Soviets, and also accepted invitations from Japan, Egyptian , Cuba, Britain, Greek , Sri Lanka , Finland , Poland , Italy and other countries for visits. The Soviet official media even set up horsepower to promote the feats of Soviet aerospace and Gagarin to the world. Gagarin was preparing to enter space for the second time. By 1967, he had completed the training and preparations for the first flight of the Soyuz spacecraft and became a substitute astronaut for the Komarov . But at 10:30 am on March 27, 1968, the opening scene happened, and Gagarin was killed with flight coach Xie Liaojin. There are still many different opinions on the cause of Gagarin's death, and there is no consensus. In the past 20 years of searching for Soviet art documents, as long as you encounter works with Gagarin as the subject, you will never miss them.
