On the 4th of October 1957, my late wife's class was interrupted by the news that a satellite had been launched into orbit.No-one in the room was disappointed or frightened to hear that it had been done by "the enemy" - every one of them was simply delighted to hear that it had been done by the human race.

60 years ago Gagarin became the first man to get a space flight. On board of the Vostok 1 spaceship he flew around the Earth and successfolly landed after 108 minutes in space

I find this as an inspiration for humanity.

Now the Red planet gets a whole different meaning

When your school's official name is Gagarin

Regardless of ideology, this was a massive achievement for Humanity. I find it such a waste that the space race was secondary to the arms race.

60 years ago today the historical space flight of Yuri Gagarin has happened becoming the first human in space

Fun fact: The Soviets were the first to land something on Mars. The red planet.

Alexandrov's choir could sing about idk, doing laundry and it would still be the most epic piece of music in the whole world.

"I'm escaping to the one place that hasn't been corrupted by capitalism.....SPACE"

The song of human race

"On the dusty paths of distant planets, our tracks will remain" I don't know why but that line makes me very emotional and makes the hairs on my arms stand on end

Вечная слава Героям космонавтики: инженерам, учёным, рабочим, солдатам, космонавтам и всем тем чей труд поднял род людской к звездам. Пусть имена их будут вечны.

Although I’m a American I have to thank the Soviet Union for leading humanity to space

The winner of space race are not US nor USSR, it's the humanity.

amazing

This should be the anthem of humanity.

I still love the fact that the Soviets we’re talking t among themselves and went, “what should we call out first satellite?” “How about we just call it satellite?” “That’s a great name!!!”

Soviet Union: from medieval farms to outer space in only a few decades.

This song is visited not only by the USSR and our heroes, it is dedicated to the great world, great people, all nations! Love you! Hello from Russia ssr 🚩🚩🚩

My grandma told me that she lived in a little yugoslavian village and only two peopole had tvs. and one of the tv owner called everybody in the village to watch yuri gagarin launch up in space. my grandma was 7 or something when that happend and she said that she couldnt relize that that was real.

Today is 12th of April, 2022. 61 years ago on this day, a man by the name of Yuri Gagarin, with the help of USSR space program, has become the first man to leave the atmosphere of Earth and enter Cosmos. In the Vostok capsule he circled around the planet’s orbit and returned back, setting a monumental achievement in human history. This event became one of the checkpoints in the space race and, of course, has inspired many, myself included. What I want to say, is that we all should remember what people were able to achieve that day. I want all of the people reading this, to remember time to time what the exploration of cosmos has given us - a cause. A cause greater than any war, a cause that united us and will unite us. I want you to remember this achievement as not one of USSR, Russia, of any country really, but one of humanity as a whole. This day, this achievement should serve as a reminder of what has already been done, and what can be done. Не дайте разборкам и войнам разрушить, что построили наши предки. Слава тем, кто смотрел, смотрит, и будет смотреть ввысь!

Eternal glory to Yuri Gagarin, the first man in space!

"I see it...The Earth is blue....It is covered by an eternal blue....How beautiful it is!" - The first human voice ever from Space -

American... soviet... it matters not. It is not a Soviet accomplishment... it is a human accomplishment. Long live the human race!

Russia actually has a holiday to commemorate this called "Cosmonauts day" which I presume is why you posted it on that day specifically

There’s something lovely about USSR songs…. The voice is so majestic.

Teacher in 2050: Kids, we must hurry in a few minutes we will catch the rocket to Mars. Girls:Ewwww its so dusty there Boys:

"On the dusty paths of distant planets, our footprints will remain" really has a certain feel to it that makes you patriotic and hopeful for the future, and also a slight existential moment on the cold vastness of space. I dont know exactly how to explain it but im sure people know what i mean.

Laika and Yuri are both heroes

Happy cosmonaut day my comrades USSR: 🇷🇺🇺🇦🇧🇾🇦🇿🇦🇲🇪🇪🇱🇹🇱🇻🇬🇪🇰🇿🇹🇯🇰🇬🇹🇲🇺🇿🇲🇩 Satellite state : 🇵🇱🇨🇿🇸🇰🇷🇴🇧🇬🇭🇺 (East Germany🇩🇪) Others: 🇲🇳🇨🇺🇨🇳🇻🇳🇰🇵

Long live Soviet cosmonautics and engineering 🚩 Одно из мировых советских достижений, всех с праздником.

За 40 лет после революции,имея полностью разрушенную страну, весьма мрачное будущее,но СССР смог от аграрного государства дойти до первого человека в космосе. Великая сила общего труда! Слава нашим предкам!

When the soviets sent the first satellite into space the americans where scared but when the Americans landed a man to space the soviets congratulated them but it was the achievement of mankind.

honor to the soviet people, in fifty years they went from the middle ages to space

слава савецкім навукоўцам, касманаўтам і іншым

Yuri Gagarin, the first man crazy enough to agree to be strapped to a rocket and encircle earth multiple times. This music piece sounds oddly relaxing too. I love it.

It's April 12th 2023, happy 62nd anniversary to the cherished goal of a man reaching space.

Ingen always, without fail, finds the best versions of these songs

Yuri's flight into space was one of the greatest achievements for all mankind. He's a symbol, not of Soviet's might, but of humanity's triumph of reaching the stars.

Today, world’s largest airplane, it was, An-225 was destroyed during the war. The plane is made to carry first space shuttle of USSR, never finished programme, until nowadays. It’s a sorrowful to see that old unrealized dream is faded away, hope to be resurrected this as ancient dreamers had conceived like this song.

In the first edition of the song Voinovich had written "let's smoke a sigarette before the launch" but Nikita Khruschev argued that "soviet cosmonauts don't smoke" and the phrase was replaced with "let's sing before the launch" :)

Nevertheless of which side of the Cold War you were on, there's no denying that getting into space was a monumental achievement for not the Soviet Union; but humanity.

This song really fills you with a sense of melancholy. And a feel to unite for the progress of humanity.

Love the Soviets or hate them, they truly won the space race and this song is an absolute banger

As an American, I think we should give the Soviets more credit for what they did in Space. Besides, they did a lot more space exploration than we did, while WE were busy being the so-called “Peacemakers” (Yes I know we did space exploration but still), even though we and the Soviets nearly made the Human population go extinct by making the foolish decision to do a nuclear war against each other, which didn’t happen thankfully because we and they realized that the earth will cease to exist. Anyways, even the (sadly forgotten in Western culture) legend himself, Yuri Gagarin deserves at least more credit for his amazing career in space than just Neil Armstrong! (And yet, we give Neil credit more than Gagarin just because he went to the moon first) He was crazy enough, but in a good way to fly around space so many times, the first would be 109 minutes. It’s still sad that we lost him so early..

When the American boasts about winning the space race, so you remind him that you sent a dog to space long before they sent even 1 man

I am Indian and my country and USSR had excellent relations. Even today he is my inspiration. It is a shame that we lost him so early

Happy Cosmonauts Day 2022!

ВСЕХ С ДНЁМ КОСМОНАВТИКИ!!!✊✊✊

Soviet music truly was something out of this world

Happy cosmonautics day to everyone.

Hello brothers from the West, I do not know if you celebrate the day of space exploration, but we are very pleased to know that you know our day of cosmonautics, respect to you🇷🇺❤🇺🇸❤ 🇬🇧❤🇪🇺❤🇨🇦

This song is not about USSR only it’s about people going to space

glory for the one who look forward !!!

СССР: дети мечтают стать космонавтами, учёными, первооткрывателями, инженерами, и т.п. 2022: "хочу в тикток"

Happy 60th anniversary of the first human space travel by Yuri Gagarin

This gives me some nostalgic feeling for some weird reason.... Почему-то я грущу из-за этой песни. Как будто бы вспоминаю что-то. Ностальгия по тому, где меня не было

Last time I was this early the NEP hadn't even start.

Respect and RIP Gagarin. You are our legend.

man this line ''long are we awaited by distant planets,cold worlds,silent fields,but not one of the planet is waiting for us as this precious planet named earth'' always for some reason make me shed a tear it makes me forget every single chaos in our planet ethinic or national problems it makes me think we all are one nation one people and one race the human race.

"Orbiting Earth in the spaceship, I saw how beautiful our planet is, let us preserve and increase this beauty, not destroy it.” - Yuri Gagarin

Zhdanov yeets Suslov and Bukharina with this song: Suslov and Bukharina: *Mom pick me up I'm scared*

Вот это должны слушать люди.😭

So much hope in one song...

I think the space race is really what happens when we actually use our resources for good and advancement. It's really cool.

What an honor of humanity

ПЕсня созидателей, песня мечтателей! Песня людей, строящих светлое будущее!... И как жестоко их предали их начальники...

Ingen posted Day is great now

Meanwhile NASA scientists listen to Panzerlied

За душу берет... Плакать хочеться с самого начала музыки) 😢😖😊

Que hermosa canción, la he escuchado tiempo atrás en voz de Vladimir Troshin, y me cautivó el tono; jamás imaginé de que hablaría la letra y ahora que lo veo es realmente inspiradora. :´) Thanks for the translation!!

Моя бабушка говорила мне, что когда она провожала своего брата в армию(она жила в многодетной семье) ее братья пели эту песню, проважая солдата на службу

60 years ago right now Yuri Gagarin had just left the atmosphere

This song makes me WAY too sad. When I was younger I was super into spaceflight, but as I grew older and saw Musk and all the other capitalists take it over, it lost all appeal. This brings back memories of when I perceived spaceflight as a egalitarian quest for humanity. May the Soviet Union and all who saw a brighter future live on in our hearts.

"Заправлены в планшеты космические карты"..., а ведь смысл, спустя 70 лет, не поменялся! :)

This is the kind of music that makes me feel proud of mankind

Once upon a time, Yuri Gagarin and Neil Armstrong said that this is a technological breakthrough and everyone can fly in space and this will become commonplace! I'm sorry Yura !

А ещё говорят "отсталая держава".Если бы дали спокойно развиваться, то уже сейчас бы летали на Луну на постоянке, а не ради космической гонки

С днём космонавтики в 2022, товарищи!

With such music, a man can have some hope for the future of humanity!

Using this in my physics presentation tomorrow, wish me luck!

Слава советскому союзу товарищи

Юрий Гагарин был великим космонавтом СССР. Слава Юрию Гагарину....

I believe, friends, that rocket caravans The music...

In space we are unified as one person

С праздником, Товарищи🎉

Soviets won the space race, don't even try to cope

Прекрасное время, время достижений всего человечества, прекрасные люди.... мне 9 лет, я во втором классе и мы бежим с сестрой радостные домой из школы...

a someone who is a space nerd im pissed off at myself bc that i didnt know that april 12th was this 60th anniversary of the yuri gagarians space flight

The winner of the space race was USSR officially

Sometimes its not about ideology, its about having hope on the people, imagine guys, one day, everyone united, working together, so we could be able to actually see the potential of humanity. Sometimes its like I miss the USSR even when I've never ever lived in there, not because of the government itself, but because the people actually had a pure idea to follow, just by working together, socialism might not be the best way to get into communism, but maybe one day, we can work together and be proud to call yourself part of Humanity

1:41 I really wish the song went on longer and ended on a repeat of this sweet and endearing verse!❤️👨🏻‍🚀🌏

Respect to russia 🇫🇷♥️🇷🇺

С днем космонавтики, друзья!! В этот день 62 года назад Юрий Алексеевич Гагарин впервые вышел на орбиту Земли, впервые увидел ее со стороны. Это был поразительный героизм, полететь за пределы Земли, в неизвестность. Я думаю, что это служит доказательством того, что человек при должном упорстве и знании может все. еще раз с праздником!

My space: ❌ Our space: ✔ Jokes aside, it's a very interesting celebration. I'm glad they do this kind of things. Coming from a country that doesn't show appreciation for science, I know things like this are really beautiful 😁

You go, Artemis. Bring us back up there. Edit: Don't worry, take your time.

С днем космонавтики

The only thing about this song that I don't find satisfying is that it isn't 14 minutes long.
