EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Konstantin Feoktistov, a prominent figure in Soviet space exploration. Born in 1926 and passing away in 2009, Feoktistov was not only a skilled engineer but also an esteemed cosmonaut. In 1964, he embarked on a groundbreaking mission aboard the Voskhod 1 spacecraft alongside two fellow cosmonauts. This historic flight marked the first time that more than one person had ventured into space, orbiting the Earth an impressive 16 times. Although medical reasons prevented Feoktistov from further space travel, his contributions to the field did not end there. He went on to become the head of the Soviet space design bureau and played a pivotal role in designing some of the earliest orbital stations. Recognized for his exceptional achievements, he was awarded the prestigious title of Hero of the Soviet Union.
