The V-2 was the world's first long-range
guided ballistic missile.
 
The missile, powered by a liquid-propellant
rocket engine, was developed during the
Second World War in Germany as a
"vengeance weapon", assigned to attack
Allied cities as retaliation for the Allied
bombings against German cities.
 
The V-2 rocket also became the first man-
made object to travel into space by
crossing the Kármán line with the vertical
launch of MW 18014 on 20 June 1944.

The Kármán line, or Karman line, lies at an altitude of 100 km (62 mi;
330,000 ft) above Earth's sea level and commonly represents the
boundary between Earth's atmosphere and outer space.[2] This definition
is accepted by the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (FAI), which is
an international standard-setting and record-keeping body for aeronautics
and astronautics.

Biography: Yuri Gagarin,
cosmonaut
 
Born: 9 March 1934
Birthplace: Klushino, Russia
Died: 27 March 1968
(airplane crash)
Best Known As: The first
human in space
 
Presention created by: Vlad Florea
 
Early life
 
    
Yuri Gagarin was born in
 
the village of Klushino
near Gzhatsk (now in Smolensk Oblast,
Russia), on 9 March 1934. The adjacent town
of Gzhatsk was renamed Gagarin in 1968 in
his honor. His parents, Alexei Ivanovich
Gagarin and Anna Timofeyevna Gagarina,
worked on a collective farm.
 
Early life
 
   
Like all people his age Gagarin
 
had to
undergo the ordeals of the war years.
He was seven, when the Second World
War broke out. The boy survived the
Nazi invasion, the severe hardships of
the war. The first planes he saw were
war planes
.
 
Early life
 
   
When the war ended the Gagarin
family moved to Gzhatsk. Yuri
attended an elementary school in this
town.
 
Early life
 
    Gagarin briefly attended a trade
school to learn foundry work in the
Moscow satellite town of Lyubertsy,
then entered a technical school. He
joined the Saratov Flying Club in
1955 and learned to fly the Yak-18.
 
Early life
 
    Later that year, he was drafted and sent
to the Orenburg Flying School, where
he trained in the MIG jet. Gagarin
graduated November 7, 1957, four days
after Sputnik 2 was launched. He
married Valentina Goryacheva, a
nursing student, the day he graduated.
 
Career in the Soviet space
program
Selection and training
 
    Post-graduation, he was assigned to
Luostari airbase in Murmansk Oblast,
close to the Norwegian border, where
terrible weather made flying risky. In
1958 space officials recruited air force
pilots to train as cosmonauts.
 
Career in the Soviet space
program
Selection and training
 
    Gagarin applied and was selected to
train in the first group of sixty men.
Only twelve men were taken for
further training at Zvezdograd (Star
City), a training field outside Moscow.
 
Career in the Soviet space
program
Selection and training
 
     
Space officials closely observed the
trainees. They finally selected Gagarin
for the first spaceflight. Capable,
strong, and even-tempered, Gagarin
represented the ideal Soviet man, a
peasant farmer who became a highly
trained cosmonaut in a few short
years.
 
Career in the Soviet space
program
Space flight
 
    He was launched in Vostok 1 on the
planned date, and during the crowded 1
hour 48 minutes of his single orbit of
the earth he proved that man could
survive in space and perform useful
tasks. His mission ended at 10:55 A.M.,
when he landed safely in a field near
Saratov
 
Career in the Soviet space
program
Fame and later life
 
    After the flight, Gagarin became a
worldwide celebrity, touring widely
with appearances in Italy, Great
Britain, Germany, Canada, and Japan
to promote the Soviet achievement.
 
Career in the Soviet space
program
Fame and later life
 
     
In 1962, he began serving as a deputy
to the Supreme Soviet. He later
returned to Star City, the cosmonaut
facility, where he worked on designs
for a reusable spacecraft. Gagarin
worked on these designs in Star City
for 7 years.
 
Death and legacy
 
    On 27 March 1968, while on a routine
training flight, he and flight instructor
Vladimir Seryogin died in a MiG-15UTI
crash near the town of Kirzhach.
Gagarin and Seryogin were buried in
the walls of the Kremlin on Red
Square.
 
Death and legacy
 
     American astronauts Neil Armstrong and
Edwin Aldrin left one of Gagarin's medals
on the moon as a tribute. The cosmonaut
training center where he had first trained
was named after him.  A crater on the
moon bears his name, as does Gagarin
Square in Moscow with its soaring
monument, along with  a number of
monuments and streets     in cities
throughout Russia. At Baikonur,  a
reproduction of his training room is
traditionally visited by space crews before
a launch. Russians celebrate Cosmonaut
Day on April 12 every year in honor of
Gagarin's historic flight.
