After Yuri Gagarin landed back on Earth on April 12, 1961, he was celebrated as a national hero in the Soviet Union. He toured various countries, promoting the achievements of the Soviet space program, and participated in numerous public events. Gagarin continued to work in the space program, training for future missions, and he also served as a deputy in the Supreme Soviet. Tragically, he died in a plane crash in 1968 at the age of 34.
