Inscription “CCCP <Vostok-1> 12.IV.1961”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Vostok-1 (Russian: \u0412\u043e\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0301\u043a, East or Orient 1) was the first spaceflight of the Vostok program and the first manned spaceflight in history.<\/p>\n

Because of weight constraints, there was no backup retrorocket engine. The spacecraft carried 10 days of provisions to allow for survival and natural orbital decay in the event the retrorockets failed. The letters “CCCP” were hand-painted onto Gagarin’s helmet by engineer Sergeevich Lebedev during transfer to the launch site. As it had been less than a year since U2 pilot Gary Powers was shot down, Lebedev reasoned that without some country identification, there was a small chance the cosmonaut might be mistaken for a spy on landing.<\/p>\n
