And, as a bird, flee owre the wa’ o’ the world
To bigg his nest in the braid breast
O’ Cassiopeia
Or whaur the galaxy hings like a watergaw
Lippen on nae sin…

Reverend Elvis65 years ago today:
«Пое́хали!»
Yuri Alexeyevich Gagarin was a Soviet cosmonaut and the first man in space. On 12 April 1961, Yuri Gagarin completed his spectacular space flight in the Vostok 1 spacecraft, orbiting the Earth once.
This was only 16 years after the German Fascist Army destroyed the whole country and killed more than 27 million people. So there is always hope! #gagarin #firsthumaninspace #artemis

📚 German Titow, der zweite Mensch im All, wird gewürdigt.
• • Titow absolvierte 1961 ersten "richtigen" Weltraumflug.
• • Gagarin und Armstrong sind bekannter als Titow und Aldrin.
