The original goals of Vostok 1, launched by the Soviet Union on April 12, 1961, were to achieve the first human spaceflight and to demonstrate the feasibility of sending a person into orbit around the Earth. The mission aimed to gather data on the conditions of space travel and the effects of weightlessness on the human body. Additionally, it sought to solidify Soviet leadership in the space race during the Cold War. Yuri Gagarin, the first human in space, successfully completed one orbit around the Earth during this historic mission.
