Yuri Gagarin, primo essere umano a liberarsi dalle catene della gravità e a volare nello spazio, nasceva da padre falegname e madre contadina.
Aveva solo 27 anni quando il 12 aprile 1961 orbitò intorno alla Terra per un'ora e 48 minuti, e da lassù, prima di chiunque altro, poté guardare la Terra dallo spazio esterno.
Tutte le linee di frontiera sorvegliate giorno e notte da soldati armati, tutti i confini tracciati a tavolino dai politici e tutti i nomi che da sempre leggiamo stampati sulle carte geografiche devono essergli apparsi ingenui scribbles of a child under immense and bright and quiet hung in space.
envy that must have felt deeply Gagarin ... although not a long time enjoyed its leadership. Just seven years after the historic flight aboard the Vostok 1, died in the crash that drove the small MIG, leaving a wife and two children.
The details of the accident were never fully understood ... although of course there is a conspiracy theory which claims that the tragedy would have been organized by the Kremlin, where he then commanded Brezhnev, to get rid of a character that was becoming cumbersome and unwieldy.
At the time, I was too young to follow the his business, but today I dedicate this photoshoppata. You can download it or see it better HERE.
