First Man In Space

63 years ago, on April 12th, 1961, Yuri Gagarin was the first human to reach orbital velocity around the Earth and to complete a full orbit around the Earth, aboard the Vostok 3KA space capsule. This was during a time where computational power was billion times less powerful than a phone people used today for fucking TikTok.
