This print showcases the historic descent module of Yuri Gagarin, famously known as "Charik" or "little ball". On April 12,1961, this very module marked the end of humanity's first-ever manned spaceflight. Yuri Gagarin achieved an incredible feat by completing one full revolution around the Earth aboard the Vostok 1 spacecraft. The entire flight lasted a remarkable 108 minutes, during which Gagarin landed astonishingly close to the calculated point, merely six miles away. Weighing in at a substantial 2400 kilograms and measuring approximately 2.3 meters in diameter, Charik symbolizes both Soviet ingenuity and human courage that pushed boundaries beyond imagination. This iconic artifact represents a pivotal moment in history when mankind ventured into uncharted territories. Tragically, Yuri Gagarin met his untimely demise on March 27,1968 while testing an aircraft. However, his legacy lives on as an inspiration for generations to come. This awe-inspiring photograph from Science Photo Library captures not only the physicality of Charik but also encapsulates the spirit of exploration and scientific progress that defined Russia's space program during that era.
