Happy Space, Planet Earth!

Colonel Yuri Gagarin visited Britain only once, in July 1961, two months after his epochal flight into space.

In Britain, Yuri Gagarin came to the rank of major, not a colonel.

The bar at the top of the launch vehicle - a system of emergency rescue of the crew of the ship in the event of an accident during launch. Such a system was used in the Soviet space program six times and only one - during a manned launch. September 26, 1983 with "Gagarin" start must be to fly to dock with the space station "Salyut-7" spacecraft "Soyuz T-10-1" with the cosmonauts Vladimir Titov and Gennady Strekalov. One minute before the start due to overheating of the fuel system on the launch pad on fire. For ten seconds before the start of the two operators who followed the procedure (the so-called "shooting), had to understand what is happening and to engage emergency rescue system. Engines CAC worked cleanly and the capsule with the astronauts went to a height of about one kilometer, then landed near the launch site. During the shooting of the astronauts experienced seventeenfold overload. Booster fell into the sump through the launching pad for three seconds after the capsule with the astronauts flew away. 180 tons of fuel and flashed narrowly escaped destruction all over the launch pad. Flight program to "Salyut-7" has been broken, and Liakhov Alexandrov (Soyuz T-9) were without changers, was a criminal case, but the main thing - Titov and Strekalov alive. The accident at the start was classified.

August 11 in Samara died chief designer of rockets "P-7", "R-7A" and "Soyuz-2", Hero of Socialist Labor, Laureate of the Lenin and State Prize M. Soldatenkov [/COLOR][/URL]. The man, who was the Deputy Queen, launched the first "Group of Seven". But there is one more important - Soldatenkov was one of the two "shooting" in 1983 that saved the crew of the "Union of the T-10-1." If he had not, it would be in the Soviet space for two more victims.

The bright memory Alexander, and the land he rest in peace.
