Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin was a Soviet pilot and cosmonaut. He was the first human

to journey into outer space in the Vostok spacecraft on 12 April 1961.

He was launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, made almost-but-

not-quite one complete orbit of the Earth, landed 1hour 48minutes after launch, and

never went to space again.
