Soviet cosmonaut, Yuri Gagarin, became the first man in space when he piloted Vostok 1 into space on April 12, 1961. He made one orbit of the earth. That was his only spaceflight. He died in a plane crash on March 27, 1968 during a routine training flight. His ashes are buried in the wall of the Kremlin in Moscow's Red Square.
