For the last word this evening, on this Yuri’s Night, we’ll leave to our colleague Thomas Pesquet who is at this moment preparing for sleep just over Newfoundland. That’s a sentence not many people get to write… Nite all.
Fifty-six years ago Gagarin was the first to go to space. Since then, we’ve never stopped to explore! From Vostok to Progress to Soyuz to the International Space Station. Fifty-six years of human spaceflight! Happy Yuri’s Night everyone! https://flic.kr/p/SgTk6r
