On June 30 1971 the crew of Soyuz 11, Georgi Dobrovolski, Viktor Patsayev and Vladislav Volkov, were killed after undocking from the Salyut 1 space station. A valve on their spacecraft had accidentally opened when the service module separated, letting their air leak out into space.

∙ 14y agoThe first man to enter space and return safely was the Russian Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin who travelled into space on 12th April 1961 after being launched on Vostok 1. Sadly, he was killed in a routine plane crash on 27th March 1968.
There have been many conspiracy theories surrounding Gagarin's space flight as no one in the Western world knew about it until its completion and Gagarin had returned safely. This led many conspiracists in the West (especially in the USA, who were pipped at the post to get the first man in space) to suggest that Russia had already sent many men up into space, but they had perished there, and Russia kept quiet about these events. However, these stories were simply Propaganda by the USA as there was abcolutely no evidence of anything untoward in the Russian spece programme.
Gagarin's body is now buried in Red Square, Moscow.
