Happy cosmonautics day. Go
55 years ago, Yuri Gagarin made the first ever flight into space. Today, the leading radio "Mayak" are at the Baikonur cosmodrome and tell the story of this great event. The Highscreen brand is the technology partner of this project.

“On April 12, 1961, in the Soviet Union, the world's first spacecraft“ Vostok ”with a man on board was launched into Earth orbit.
Pilot-cosmonaut of the Vostok satellite spacecraft is a citizen of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics pilot Major GAGARIN Yuri Alekseevich.
The launch of the space multistage rocket was successful, and after the first cosmic velocity was set and the spacecraft separated from the last stage of the launch vehicle, the satellite began free orbit around the Earth.
According to preliminary data, the orbital period of the satellite ship around the Earth is 89.1 minutes; the minimum distance from the surface of the Earth (at perigee) is 175 kilometers, and the maximum distance (at apogee) is 302 kilometers; angle of inclination of the orbital plane to the equator - 65 degrees 4 minutes.
The weight of the spacecraft-satellite with the pilot-cosmonaut is 4,725 kilograms, excluding the weight of the final stage of the launch vehicle.
Two-way radio communication was established and maintained with cosmonaut Comrade Gagarin. The frequencies of the onboard shortwave transmitters are 9.019 megahertz and 20.006 megahertz, and in the ultrashort wave range 143.625 megahertz. With the help of radio telemetry and television systems, the astronaut is monitored during flight.
Comrade Gagarin transferred the period of launching the satellite ship Vostok into orbit satisfactorily and now he feels well. Systems that provide the necessary living conditions in the cockpit of a satellite ship are functioning normally.
The flight of the satellite ship Vostok with the pilot-cosmonaut Comrade Gagarin in orbit continues.
9 h. 52 m. According to the data received from the Vostok spacecraft, at 9 hours 52 minutes Moscow time, pilot cosmonaut Major Gagarin, being over South America, transmitted: “The flight is normal, I feel good.”
At 1015 hours Moscow time, pilot-cosmonaut Major Gagarin, flying over Africa, transmitted from the Vostok spacecraft: “The flight proceeds normally, I endure weightlessness well”.
10 h. 25 m. At 10 hours 25 minutes Moscow time, after circling the globe in accordance with a given program, the braking system was turned on and the satellite-spacecraft with the pilot-cosmonaut Major Gagarin began to decline from orbit to land in a given area of ​​the Soviet Union. "
