Biography: Yuri Gagarin

Birthplace: Klushino, Russia

Best Known As: The first human in space


Yuri Gagarin was born in the village of Klushino near Gzhatsk (now in Smolensk Oblast, Russia), on 9 March 1934. The adjacent town of Gzhatsk was renamed Gagarin in 1968 in his honor. His parents, Alexei Ivanovich Gagarin and Anna Timofeyevna Gagarina, worked on a collective farm.


Like all people his age Gagarin had to undergo the ordeals of the war years. He was seven, when the Second World War broke out. The boy survived the Nazi invasion, the severe hardships of the war. The first planes he saw were war planes .


When the war ended the Gagarin family moved to Gzhatsk. Yuri attended an elementary school in this town.


Gagarin briefly attended a trade school to learn foundry work in the Moscow satellite town of Lyubertsy, then entered a technical school. He joined the Saratov Flying Club in 1955 and learned to fly the Yak-18.


Later that year, he was drafted and sent to the Orenburg Flying School, where he trained in the MIG jet. Gagarin graduated on November 7, 1957, four days after Sputnik 2 was launched. He married Valentina Goryacheva, a nursing student, the day he graduated.


Post-graduation, he was assigned to Luostari airbase in Murmansk Oblast, close to the Norwegian border, where terrible weather made flying risky. In 1958 space officials recruited air force pilots to train as cosmonauts.


Career in the Soviet space program Selection and training

Gagarin applied and was selected to train in the first group of sixty men. Only twelve men were taken for further training at Zvezdograd (Star City), a training field outside Moscow.


Career in the Soviet space program Selection and training

Space officials closely observed the trainees. They finally selected Gagarin for the first spaceflight. Capable, strong, and even-tempered, Gagarin represented the ideal Soviet man, a peasant farmer who became a highly trained cosmonaut in a few short years.


Career in the Soviet space program

He was launched in Vostok 1 on the planned date, and during the crowded 1 hour 48 minutes of his single orbit of the earth he proved that man could survive in space and perform useful tasks. His mission ended at 10:55 A.M., when he landed safely in a field near Saratov


After the flight, Gagarin became a worldwide celebrity, touring widely with appearances in Italy, Great Britain, Germany, Canada, and Japan to promote the Soviet achievement.


Career in the Soviet space program Fame and later life

In 1962, he began serving as a deputy to the Supreme Soviet. He later returned to Star City, the cosmonaut facility, where he worked on designs for a reusable spacecraft. Gagarin worked on these designs in Star City for 7 years.


death and legacy

On 27 March 1968, while on a routine training flight, he and flight instructor Vladimir Seryogin died in a MiG-15UTI crash near the town of Kirzhach. Gagarin and Seryogin were buried in the walls of the Kremlin on Red Square.


death and legacy

American astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin left one of Gagarin's medals on the moon as a tribute. The cosmonaut training center where he had first trained was named after him. A crater on the moon bears his name, as does Gagarin Square in Moscow with its soaring monument, along with a number of monuments and streets in cities throughout Russia. At Baikonur, a reproduction of his training room is traditionally visited by space crews before a launch. Russians celebrate Cosmonaut Day on April 12 every year in honor of Gagarin "s historical flight.

Space Exploration (2)

Mankind always dreamed of overcoming gravity and reaching other planets. But it was only in the 1960ies that this dream was to become reality.

On the 12th of April 1961 the spaceship "Vostok" was launched into space with a man on board and after orbiting our planet successfully returned to the Earth.

The first man to overcome gravity and orbit the Earth was Yuri Gagarin. This day went down in history of mankind as an outstanding achievement, opening the space era.

In the course of space exploration there have been lots of achievements of world science and technology. This period saw the launching of many earth satellites, numerous space laboratories. Among the achievements we may enumerate the landing of automatic stations on the Moon, the flights of space laboratories towards Venus and Mars.

These are the years of manned space flight programs: Valentina Tereshkova was the first woman-cosmonaut to make a space flight, A. A. Leonov achieved the first "space walk" in 1965, the first Soviet experimental station with four cosmonauts on tjoard went into orbit, the first American expedition landed on the Moon.

The Soviet "Lunokhod", automatic orbital stations "Soyuz" and other space laboratories opened up a new period of space exploration. From the first experiments scientists went over to systematic exploration of space.

Recently there have been calls to reduce expenditure on space research programs. I think it would be a serious mistake to allow this to happen.

There is a direct link between the development of space research programs and different earth technologies. The higher the former are the more developed the latter are.

Space exploration (2 )

Mankind has always dreamed of overcoming the force of gravity and visiting other planets. But only in the sixties this dream was destined to come true.

On April 12, 1961, the Vostok spacecraft was launched into space with a man on board. And after he circled our planet, he safely returned to Earth.

The first person who overcame the force of gravity and flew around the planet was Yuri Gagarin. This day went down in the history of mankind as an outstanding achievement, opened the space age.

In the course of space research, many discoveries were made in world science and technology. At this time, many satellites and numerous space laboratories were launched. Among the achievements we can list such as the establishment of automatic stations on the Moon, the flights of space laboratories to Venus and Mars.

These are the years of flights on spaceships with a man on board Valentina Tereshkova was the first woman cosmonaut to go into space. A. A. Leonov made the first spacewalk in 1965, the first Soviet experimental station with four cosmonauts on board entered Earth orbit, the first American expedition landed on the Moon.

The Soviet "Lunokhod", automatic orbital stations "Soyuz" and other space laboratories opened a new period of space research. From the first experiments, scientists moved on to a systematic exploration of space.

IN Lately there are calls to cut spending on space research programs. I think it would be a serious mistake to allow this.

There is a direct relationship between the development of space research programs and various terrestrial technologies. How better programs the more advanced the technology.

Questions:

1. What did mankind always dream about?
2. When did this dream become reality?
3. When was the spaceship "Vostok" launched?

First M e n in Space Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin (1934 -1968) was a Soviet cosmonaut. On 12 April 1961, he became the first human in outer space and the first to orbit the Earth aboard the Vostok -1 .

On 12 April 1961, Yuri Gagarin made a space flight onboard the spaceship “Vostok-1”. His tour around the Earth lasted 1 hour 48 minutes.

Today Vostok-1 can be seen in All-Russian Exhibition Center in Moscow.

Neil Alden Armstrong (born August 5, 1930) is an American aviator and a former astronaut, test pilot, aerospace engineer, university professor, and United States Naval Aviator. On July 20, 1969 , h e was the first person to set foot on the Moon. First men on the Moon Buzz Aldrin (born Edwin Eugene Aldrin, Jr.; January 20, 1930) is an American mechanical engineer , retired United States Air Force pilot and austronaut who was the Luna Module pilot on Apollo 11 , the first manned lunar landing in history. He was the second person to set foot on the Moon , following mission commander Neil Armstrong .

Neil Armstrong's first spaceflight was aboard Gemini 8 in 1966, for which he was the command pilot, becoming the first U.S. civillian to fly in space. On this mission, he performed the first manned docking of two spacecrafts together with pilot David Scott. His second and last spaceflight was as mission commander of the Apollo 11 moon landing mission on July 20, 1969. On this mission, Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin descended to the lunar surface and spent 2½ hours exploring while Michael Collins remained in orbit in the Command Module Armstrong is a recipient of the Congressional Space Medal of Honor.

Space has always attracted man with its incomprehensibility, mystery and inaccessibility. Knowledge about it has been accumulating for hundreds, if not thousands of years, and only in the 20th century did scientists make a significant breakthrough in the field of space exploration and exploration. Today, humanity is seriously thinking about life outside of our planet, and we thought that a video on the relevant topic would be interesting and useful for you.

From the video you will learn about the possibility of colonizing other planets and creating separate settlements outside the territory of the Earth, you will be able to practice listening, and also replenish your vocabulary.

This material is designed for learners of English with a level and above.

To get started, read the instructions on how to use this article so that it brings the greatest effect.

How and where to colonize space - how and where to colonize space

TextPhrases
Hi! I'm Joe Strout. I have two boys, 10 and 14 years old, and three of us have been working for the last year or so on a video game about space settlement. But it's not just a game. In fact, it's the most detailed and accurate space colony simulation program that has ever been made.and space settlement is a space settlement
detailed - detailed
accurate - accurate, thorough
and space colony - space colony, settlement
and simulation program - simulation program
We simulate everything from gravity, radiation, and rotational dynamics down to individual buildings and traffic paths for the people inside. All this is quite a lot of work as you can imagine. But we feel it's important. For my part, I'd say it's the most important project I've ever worked on. I'd like to share with you some of the big ideas behind it and why it matters so much.a traffic path
it matters - it matters, it matters
In the early days of space exploration things proceeded very rapidly. Twelve years from Sputnik to the first moon landing. People assumed this pace of change would continue and we would soon be moving into space in large numbers. So researchers looked carefully whether the best site for a growing society is Earth, the Moon, Mars, some other planet or somewhere else entirely. space exploration - space exploration
to proceed - occur, develop, unfold
rapidly - quickly, rapidly
Moon landing - landing on the moon
to assume - assume, assume
pace - pace, speed
a researcher
and site - a place, a platform
somewhere else entirely /ɪnˈtaɪəlɪ/ - in a completely different place
Surprisingly, they found the answer to be inescapable: the best site is somewhere else entirely. Researchers concluded that the best place for humanity to live in space isn't on the surface of any planet or Moon, but rather in free-floating orbital space colonies. Numerous papers were written and studies were done working out the details. This was just before the Space Shuttle, which was expected to dramatically lower the cost to orbit. The cost analysis showed that we could have orbital cities of tens of thousands of people, perhaps by 1995 or so.inescapable - inevitable, inevitable
to conclude - draw a conclusion
humanity - humanity
on the surface - on the surface
numerous - numerous
to work out - calculate, work out, understand
drastically lower the cost - significantly reduce the cost
an orbit - orbit
tens of thousands - tens of thousands
well, obviously that didn't happen. The shuttle program turned out to be quite a bit more expensive than expected, and funding for the space program was reduced. Also the energy crisis of the 1970s temporarily abated, reducing the need to look for clean, cheap energy sources such as space-based solar power. so we retreated to low Earth orbit going around in circles for more than three decades. obviously - obviously
to turn out - find out, turn out
funding - financing
to be reduced - to be reduced, reduced
to abat temporarily - temporarily decrease, decrease; go into decline
an energy source - energy source
space-based solar power - space solar power plant
to retreat /rɪˈtriːt/ - refuse, retreat
a decade - decade
But now things are changing again. private enterprises are entering the space business in an aggressive way with ventures like SpaceX reducing the cost to orbit down to the sort of levels we were expecting in the 70s. Virgin Galactic is preparing to make routine passenger flights to the edge of space. Bigelow Aerospace has tested private inflatable space stations, and several companies are now seriously proposing to mine near-Earth asteroids. So amidst all this renewed activity, people are starting to think again about colonizing space.a private enterprise - a private enterprise
and venture - a gamble, a risky venture or undertaking
an edge - edge
inflatable - inflatable
to propose - offer
to mine - blow up
amidst - in conditions, among
But what destinations do people think about?
The top of the list is, as always, Mars. Mars holds fascination for us, and it has been a target of colonization dreams since the early days of space exploration.
a destination - destination
fascination /fæsɪˈneɪʃn/ - attractiveness, captivating
a target - the target
since /sɪns/ - from the moment when
Next up is the Moon, which has the unique advantage of being only a few days away all the time. A few thinkers have considered Venus, which might support floating cities at just the right level in the atmosphere to have Earth-like temperatures and pressures. And then, so far down on the list, that most people don't even give it any thought, orbital space colonies. So let's talk about those. How do they work? And should we be giving them more attention?a few - a little, a few
to consider - consider, consider
a floating city - floating (soaring) city
pressure - pressure
to give some (any) thought - seriously think
First, let's look at gravity. We know that one Earth's gravity, like what we're all sitting in right now, is good for us. And we know from years of living board space stations that zero gravity is not healthy for us. It causes bones and muscles to weaken, immune deficiency, heart problems, and increased risk of things like kidney stones. gravity - gravity, attraction
aboard - on board
to cause - cause, be the cause
to weaken - weaken
immune deficiency - immunodeficiency
an increased risk - increased risk
a kidney stone - kidney stone
But what do we know about intermediate levels of gravity, like the 1/3 G on Mars, or the 1/6 G on the Moon? Well, here is what we know: nothing. Nobody has ever lived at any intermediate level of gravity for more than a few days, so we just don't know the effects of these G levels, even on adults. Much less children who are likely to be more susceptible to developmental problems. intermediate - intermediate, average
an adult - adult
susceptible /səˈseptəbl/ - receptive, sensitive
a developmental problem - a developmental problem
This is a big problem for planetary colonies, because you can't get Earth-like gravity anywhere except earth and possibly Venus. But without children you don't have a colony, you have at best an outpost. except - except
possibly - possibly
at best - at best
an outpost - remote settlement, representative office, outpost
Orbital space colonies produce pseudo gravity through rotation, just like amusement park rides some of you may have tried. The larger the radius of rotation is, the slower it can spin and still produce an Earth-like gravity. A one-kilometer colony, for example, only needs to spin 1.3 times each minute to produce one Earth's gravity.pseudo /ˈsjuːdəʊ/ - pseudo
rotation - rotation
an amusement park ride - an attraction in an amusement park
to spin - spin, rotate
each - each
Of course, if we discover that less gravity is acceptable, then we can either build smaller or spin slower. In fact, one cool thing about an orbital colony is that you can have multiple, different levels of gravity at the same time. Higher decks closer to the spin axes have proportionately less gravity. So maybe if we'll find that elderly or injured patients are safer at 1/2 G, they can just stay on a higher deck.to discover - discover
acceptable - acceptable
either ... or ... - or ... or ...
multiple - numerous
a deck - deck, platform
a spin ax - axis of rotation
the elderly
an injured patient - injured / injured patient
And in the center, you can have zero gravity sports and recreation, and still be at home in time for dinner.recreation - recreation, entertainment
OK, let's talk about radiation. Free space is filled with radiation from the Sun, and much harder radiation in the form of cosmic rays which stream in from all directions. Here on Earth we're protected largely by the Earth's magnetic field, and secondarily by the tons of air above our heads. Mars, Venus and the Moon have no significant magnetic fields. And apart from Venus, not much atmosphere either. So every time you step outside there, you're dosing yourself with radiation. You'd have to stay underground most of the time to avoid problems like cataracts cancer and infertility. free space - free space
be filled with - to be filled with something
a cosmic ray - cosmic radiation, beam
to stream in - pour in
a direction - the direction
a magnetic field
significant - significant, important
to step outside - go out
to avoid - to avoid
cancer - cancer (disease)
infertility - infertility
Orbital space colonies are built outside-in. We're going to need a few meters of soil beneath our feet anyway to support a robust biosphere. And that alone provides substantial shielding against space radiation.outside-in - inside out
soil beneath /bɪˈniːθ/ our feet - soil under our feet
robust - strong, durable
substantial shielding /ˈʃiːldɪŋ/ - enhanced protection
In fact, a colony in a low Earth orbit would have less radiation inside than we experience here on Earth. Outside of Earth’s magnetic field some additional shielding might be necessary, but it’s still nicer to have that beneath your feet than over your head.to experience - feel, experience
I'm going touch only briefly upon the day/night cycle. Obviously, we evolved with the 24-hour day. The Martian day is very similar: 24.6 hours, and this may be a part of our fascination with Mars. A space colony would have exactly the day length that you want, most likely, matching Earth's. Daylight would either be sunlight, reflected into the habitat through shield mirrors, or artificial lighting, but so far overhead that it produces an outdoorsy daytime feel. to touch upon - touch, mention
to evolve - develop
matching - matching
daylight - daylight
reflected - reflected
a habitat - habitat, place of residence
an outdoorsy daytime feel - the feeling of being outdoors during the daytime
So you can probably tell by now that I see a lot of advantages to orbital colonies. as soon as you let go of the assumption that we need a planetary surface to live on, you quickly come to the conclusion that orbital space colonies are the best place to be. In short, we can do better than Mars.as soon as - as soon as
to let go - let go
an assumption
to come to the conclusion - come to a conclusion
This is why my sons and I are building our game which we called “High Frontier". We have built it to be as accurate as possible: the physics, radiation levels, ecology and everything else is based on real science. So players of the game aren't just playing, they're exploring the vast design space and finding solutions that might actually work.a frontier /ˈfrʌntɪə/ - border, frontier
to be based on - to be based on
science - science
vast - extensive
a solution - a solution, a way out of a situation
At the very least, they're learning about an alternative to planetary colonies. And we hope that some day some of those smart, educated players might help to make it actually happen. When it does, it might unfold something like this. The little green dots you see here represent orbital space colonies. Each one is home to anywhere from 10 thousand to 10 million men, women and children.at the very least - at least
to unfold - unfold, occur
a dot - dot
to represent - represent
A recent work based in part upon “High Frontier” has shown its best to begin in low Earth orbit, within the Earth's magnetic field. But we'll expand from there to higher Earth orbits, and then orbits near the Moon. After that, colonies around Mars might make sense with its two moons providing materials.recent - recent, extreme
within - within
to expand - expand
to make sense - to make sense
From there we'll expand into the Asteroid Belt with an estimated billion or so objects, at least 100 meters in diameter, which may not sound like much, but a 100-meter asteroid weights about 10 million metric tons. In fact, experts estimate that there is enough material in the main Asteroid Belt alone to build space colonies with the combined area of ​​3000 times the living land area of Earth.the Asteroid Belt - asteroid belt
estimated - installed
a billion - a billion
to weigh - weigh
enough - enough
a livable land area - land area suitable for life
And then there are more asteroids in Jupiter's orbit, and of course the Jovian System which has dozens of minor moons and rings massing about 10 billion tons.the Jovian System - Jupiterian (ring) system
a dozen /dʌzn/ - a dozen
minor /ˈmaɪnə/ - smaller, minor
massing - with mass
After that we'll move to the Saturn System which has similar resources. Just think of the view you would have out of the windows there!to move - (pro) move
a view - view
And then forward to Uranus and Neptune. And then the Kuiper Belt, with an estimated 70 thousand dwarf planets out in the cold and dark.onward - further, forward
the Kuiper Belt
a dwarf planet - dwarf planet
The Solar System is vastly larger and richer than most people realize. It's full of exactly the materials and energy that we need. And remember, unlike past human migrations, there are no ecosystems here, no natives that will be displaced; these are sterile chunks of ice and rock just waiting for us to bring warmth, and light, and life.the Solar System - Solar System
to realize - realize, understand
a native - a local resident
to be displaced - to displace, to be moved
a chunk of rock - a piece of stone
This greening of the Solar System, turning dead chunks of rock into millions of inside out worlds full of trees, and birds, and bugs, and people. This is the bright future I see for us. And it all starts here: smart, enthusiastic kids are playing a video game where they get to decide how and where to build space colonies, how to run them when they are built, how to balance the ecosystem, manage resources and budgets, and educate each generation. That's why we're building “High Frontier” and that's why it's not just a game.greening - landscaping, ecologization
inside out - turned inside out
and bug is a beetle
enthusiastic - enthusiastic, motivated
to run - manage
and generation - generation

Grammar Minute

As you probably noticed, the video presents various grammatical tenses, we will take a closer look at the tenses of the Perfect group: Present Perfect and Present Perfect Continuous.

Let's start with the fact that in these tenses we use the auxiliary verb have/has. For the Present Perfect time, we take the 3rd form (Past Participle) as the main verb, if it is irregular (irregular), and add the ending -ed to the regular verb (regular).

We have built it to be as accurate as possible. - We developed it so that it (the game) is as accurate as possible.
Bigelow Aerospace has tested private inflatable space stations. - Bigelow Aerospace Company tested private inflatable orbital stations.

We use the Present Perfect to indicate an action that has already taken place, completed, the result of which has a meaning or consequences in the present.

A recent work based in part upon “High Frontier” has shown its best to begin in low Earth orbit. - Recent a work based in part on the game High Frontier, showed which is best to start in low Earth orbit.
Nobody has ever lived at any intermediate level of gravity for more than a few days. - Nobody never Not lived with an average gravity level of more than a few days.

Pay attention to the words recent (recent) and ever (ever). They indicate the relevance and effectiveness of information to date.

Finally, we offer to pass a small test on the studied vocabulary and grammar.

Test on the topic "Video lesson: learn English and explore space"

We also compiled a file with new vocabulary from our article. You can download it from the link below.
