Cosmonaut Sergei Volkov Expedition 28 flight engineer, prepares for spaceflight by spinning in a chair in Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan conducting final preparations for the launch of Soyuz-TMA-02M to the International Space Station on June 8, 2011 for his six month mission.

Maaaan i already watched both of those lit films and yes, i kinda agree with anon...lol😂 but both still, looks interesting! 🌟

I hope I don’t get kicked out of the Space Fandom for saying this (hence why it’s on anon), but…I thought The Spacewalker/Время Первых was…a LOT better than Gagarin: First In Space. There I said it.

I hope I don’t get kicked out of space Tumblr for saying this, but I... haven’t seen either of these. I tried to watch Gagarin: First In Space but I got interrupted by something and just never went back to it. Oops. :(

Soviet cosmonauts Andriyan Nikolayev, Gherman Titov and Yuri Gagarin (1964)

More than 2 million Syrians have fled to Turkey, driven out by the fighting that erupted in their homeland in 2011. But none can claim an odyssey quite like that of Mohammed Faris.

As Syria’s first and only cosmonaut, Mohammed Faris rocketed into orbit with two Soviet colleagues in 1987. He conducted experiments and photographed his country from space. By the time he returned to Syria, most everyone in the country knew his name.

Yet Faris is now a refugee himself, fleeing to Turkey after speaking out against the government’s efforts to crush the 2011 uprising. He ended up in Istanbul, much better off than most, but a refugee all the same.
