march twenty seventh one thousand nine hundred sixty eight. this road of aircraft in the skies over moscow region. rescuers look for a training jet didn't disappeared from radar screens. as soon as they spotted the crash site it was clear nobody could have survived. the aircraft was piloted by flight instructor of lead to major city ogun enjoy got it defers to ever man in space. seven years prior on april twelfth one thousand nine hundred sixty one rescue helicopters flew over the plane around the city of sit on top of one thousand kilometers from moscow they were looking for the sprog where you got in and successfully landed after his first space mission. that trip took an average soviet pilot to international fame. deflating took place seven years later cut short the life of the world's first

cosmina what happened in those few seconds after contact with god and was lost what caused this disaster for forty years later no geary's conclusive and important questions still remain. on the morning of april twelfth one thousand nine hundred eighty one you got and woke up at half past five in the morning is breakfast space food from tubes even joke about it saying it was only thing for a man in orbit meanwhile the us still crockett was sitting on the launch pad ready to catapult him into outer space. approaching steve the night lost track of that night has it gradually blended with don't. normally i would have woken up in the morning and headed for the launches. are you. but that night i didn't sleep

needless to say so at any rate many myself included were found more agitated the near a good got a. huge good after final medical checkups good got in was helped into a space suit a bus transported him in his back up to the rocket this film footage shows chairman of a state commission road news and me walking from the bus towards the spacecraft's chief designer sygate code of what i do and other members of the commission seated around a table carlos got in and wishes him a good journey i take a got in by the hand and take him to a ladder leading to the lift that's now about fifteen steps separate him from the lift. on march twenty seventh one thousand nine hundred sixty eight the last morning of good got in his life and mishaps plagued him from the very stark after boarding the bus taking him to the airfield he remembered he'd left his pass at home he decided to return to pick up the document although we knew full well everyone in the air force regiment recognised him like many pilots he was

superstitious and the first cause may not certainly considered this a bad omen. there were also other troubles in store for him got in would have to fly tandem with flight instructor city o. get even though he was authorized to pilot aircraft on his own. we were flying to. cloud he did a very good job piloting the aircraft showed a good command of the radio equipment. also stayed well within the flight so very together we did a very good job and. he was given x. little marks and allowed to pilot airplanes on a system. that a good getting was to fly three times he was slated for two solo flights after the outing with instructor city oregon he got into it seats in the cockpit of a made training jet several minutes passed before they were allowed to take off.

they reached what we call the point of turnaround in accordance with the flights pilots must reach that line before going into the flight so after about they go through an air core door and enter the zone and only then did they begin to ascend . the fruit twelve thousand nine hundred sixty one just a few minutes past nine in the morning you got in is already in the cabin of the bus stop rocket final preparations and checks are being made all that remains is to shut the hatch. it is a nerve racking operation full associations of cause it's an unpleasant moment because of the consequences if the hatch is low as it should be the cabin is hermetically sealed and the flight is normal. if not the cosmonauts life might be in danger. with the hash lock down and engineers ready to leave the launch site the chief designer called from mission control he said sensors had indicated the cabin

was not reliably sealed the hatch had to be check immediately. how we felt isn't hard to imagine. no but the technicians knew the job well. they unscrewed the knots and removed the hatch in no time soon. look it up with your mind speak to the connection with signals whether or not the hatch is properly sealed you knew everything there was a. button on march twenty seventh one thousand sixty eight got in straining to takes off from the runway of to color scheme military airfield and heads eastward towards the flight so the training exercises to last fifteen to twenty minutes on the plane includes a barrel rolls hook turns and vertical loops but only forty minutes later she colored skis flight controller here's good got a report on heading for base. joining the third turn i heard could

gerunds voice. was so quiet. right after that i reported to the commanding officer that i had heard the voice of number six two five. the flight commander was not alarmed by the earlier message also found nothing strange about hearing good god and not the instructor said yogen chuckling over the airwaves. record would be his last words that reach the flight command. april twelfth one thousand nine hundred sixty one nine o seven am the first man must hope rocket takes off from the launch pad. got in radios back a phrase that would in a few hours would be known around the world as his signature line.

the first flight lasting one hundred eighty minutes this spacecraft begins to descend after orbiting the earth that was one of the most complicated phases of the mission because not was to object from the descent module several kilometers above ground. for the special features was the seat. of the mechanism was powerful enough to eject one cosmonaut wearing a space suit. never you know with you as a certain altitude the entry which was jettisoned that made it possible for the cosmonauts to eject from the spacecraft and cure. thirty men that this time there was no forest here there were only three things in this field they have since grown into a tall trees on the morning of april twelfth one thousand nine hundred eighty one reader chris conover was a six year old girl playing potatoes with her grandmother they noticed two spots in

the sky they grew larger and larger into she saw an odd looking creature wearing bright orange overalls. while my grandma they kept off consumer questions where he was from i remember he said she was from a ship with apostle so there was no want to anyway any other place but then he said i'm from a spaceship. her grandmother with the first humans to see good god and after his return from outer space half an hour later a search party found the landing site in the south of regent only a handful of people knew got it when he woke up on the morning of april twelfth when he went to bed the same day he had acquired global free. garron an eye in the flying club this picture shows us near a yacht eighteen airplane only a short distance separates the place where the first cosmonauts flight began and the place where he finally touched down both are in the south a free agent we are going to explain it to garland september noisy fifty four when

both of us were going through a course of training at the club. several others had graduated from school training young people for jobs in industry. thank you to me there were just as great fans of aviation as myself who did it we kept together at the close. in sharing classroom desks and sitting examinations together. it just so happens that we have the same instructor used. around noon on march twenty seventh one thousand nine hundred eighty eight the flight controller of the airfield was desperately trying to contact fighter jet trainer number six to five. got in the pilot and reported ten minutes before in theory the aircraft should have appeared over the runway two minutes after the radio exchange time passed but who got in and said you didn't respond to calls to contact ground control it became clear half an hour later into fighter had been involved in an accident. the air force

regiments second in command were told me to report to the general. he told me that something had happened to trigger a few days ago. rescue teams were dispatched to locate the crash site around three pm one of the crews noticed a deep charring hole in the ground amidst the birch trees it was later established that it was five metres. disaster mended two men had no chance for survival the question immediately coming to mind was why such skilled pilots had been unable to eject from their cockpit. fears of that everybody wants to know why they didn't to chip in to bring in my they don't understand a pilot psychology good cheape one that something goes wrong with the serial plan to pilot tries to get things right rather than egypt because we suppose it is a former test pilot he was a member of the commission looking into what caused god instead according to one of

the initial theories bad weather could have been responsible for the crash site had been trouble was that they were flying between clothes on an aircraft reason thick clouds difficult to put out of a spin matters become even worse considering that the pilots might meet and mistaken such conditions. no other air crash investigation in soviet history and receives such attention even the tiniest plane fragments were collected from the site but investigators could glean only a small amount of information from the wreckage besides in the one nine hundred sixty s. an aircraft were not equipped with flight recorders and the lack of data he would rise to a multitude of theories explaining what had caused the tragedy. cultures that so much given to huge music is shared by more when opening the door to tear

yes this is moscow radio station soviet soviet union. on april twelfth nine hundred sixty one people across the soviet union were glued to their radios they heard a stunning message for the first time ever a man had broken out of earth's gravitational pull and gone to outer space. the first man to do so was the soviet union's very own beauty got in. practice can lay in some of my friends were in college getting ready for an exam in higher mathematics. undergrad got kharkov got all of a sudden a fellow student burst into the classroom when says someone by the name of garan

who had been launched into space article. we asked him what the patronymic go for this pilot. alec save if he said yes now we knew that he was yuri gagarin back. there was a red carpet rolled out on the airfield of a moscow airport on april fourteenth one thousand sixty one in ceremony all steps major got in march toward soviet leader nikita khrushchev without noticing that issue a says to come undone still he made his official report. comrade first secretary of the communist tulsi of the soviet union it is my pleasure trip to see you at the world's first place fly to both the vostok space ship and it on the twelfth of april one thousand nine hundred sixty one. bishop systems and equipment has been working like clockwork without fail on an excellent

healthy and ready to fulfill any new assignments by our county and government. major garrett in one thousand nine hundred eighty eight the news of good got and death spread around the country almost as fast as news of his spaceflight seven years prior that was despite the fact that the announcement had been long delayed and was couched in very terse phrasing. the commission to investigate the cause of the tragedy was already in full swing. and in which we were provided with recourse to the panels of scientists who had established the flights exact trajectory we used to reports to pass judgment on whether the two men had done the right thing during that flight at the. lack of information was the main problem facing the commission apart from got in from the flight zone there were only readings from on board instruments the investigators were not sure that they were

reliable. in the event of a serious accident the eighty creators of on board instruments weave an imprint on the remaining quarter of the next plate as a rule it's possible to locate the position of the pointer at the time of the pressure. to be good go out and smile was a vivid soviet symbol without precedent a symbol that had great appeal across the world newspapers around the globe featured front page pictures of got in for several days after his first flight the world's first kuzma not was no longer an ordinary man to become a national icon. after his first spaceflight got in began to travel widely and round the soviet union and abroad each time his visit attracted thousands of people this is how he was welcomed in japan. this is how his visit to britain got underway. the russian photographer buddy

scopolamine remembers very well how his first famous photograph came to pass he'd been assigned to cover the soviet visit of italian film star gina lollobrigida got in was among the guests. issues that emerged from onto the table which i shared with horror and if the thought that i would be unable to take any pictures at all for that i saw that their crew was occupied by a venerable recorders where there was no place for a voice like me anyway so when i poked auk right beside him he showed nori action not even the slightest just sure just when const became go into the us when he finished speaking and i finished taking pictures of course he turned to me and said so what have you been able to take any pictures of which there is nothing special about this photograph except that it got our instance side by side with the lola brigitta they still make reprints of it.

oleksandr calls that have seized the crash site from an altitude of four hundred meters for the first telling. standing at the site where the world's first cosmonaut guide is hardly visible. it's been established that the weather was bad doing the funny there were two layers of clouds. i let some of this father is a well known designer of aircraft engines he says it's the aircraft's motor that caused the disaster. this situation unfolded as follows. when the pilots found themselves in the lower level of clouds and the dozen altitude of one thousand five hundred meters the engine failed a little bit i need you to believe they tried to keep it going by forcing it to work at maximum capacity. don't brought it to an abrupt halt in flight. this theory that the engine was responsible for the crashes based on beings

obtained from onboard instruments gauge recorded a high speed on impact with the ground this means that the pilots made no attempt to pull the aircraft out of the spin otherwise they would have cut down on the thrust according to jim if it caused that or if we've got an insidious and became aware of the slowdown they tried to restart the engine. almost made me get through under normal conditions this engine can be restarted in front of. us regressively. the situation during the good god rings last flights are good it was such that the pilot was short of else achieved on time so they couldn't react because they had no time for that. in the mid one nine hundred sixty s. good got in the indicated his desire to get back in the cockpit would piloting turbojets was too much of a risk because such airplanes had not been properly tested these were new models the country's leadership didn't like the idea of putting the life of the first cars

are not in jeopardy for a long time you got in was denied a chance to pilot planes instead he was offered executive jobs he was appointed to the post of deputy head of cars not training center. still he attended classes at an air force academy and wrote a book. i first met him at a publishing have is frankly i had not expected a lieutenant recently promoted to the rank of major to be a great fan of books. going came to see valentino's support for the publishing house a few days before his final flight he brought the latest version of his book to be published just a few months later. with this is the book. in as he tells about how he feels when he gets into this craft alone or together with others to put up. this street commission investigating the cause of gun in his death did not come to

a definitive conclusion its report said briefly that some unclear circumstances and put the aircraft into a tailspin the pilots couldn't pull it out of the spin because the aircraft's altitude was too low and they'd run out of time. all the materials relating to the investigation were kept under lock and key even commission experts were unaware of the results of the commission's work with some of them suggested their own theories. would pick up and pull out a lot of version is that they hate it weather balloon it is you know some six hundred kilometers an hour of it a fifth would that of that would do feel like the impacts equivalent must have been eclipsed three tons if that were done from i. left them out i concealed the crime in and sent thirty aircraft interested in it i mean it through thought of the film. maker young's version is based on speculation that the

fighters cockpit had already come open before it hit the ground in other words the pilots were not in control of their plane after losing consciousness when they hit a weather balloon. violate a yes the cough is a flight instructor he was up in the air on the fateful morning of march twenty seventh he says faulty on board instruments may have caused the tragedy. that's normal and i don't wish to draw parallels with a low disasters i need they. into a spin after finishing the exercise a tumble and a steel door and with a tilt of sixty degrees. there were no kludge when they started their report. it was soon as they entered the clouds they lost their barracks. fifteen years after guns death professor ability to close g.m. cars were not. put forward yet another theory for the disaster according to them the fighter entered the turbulence left behind by

a supersonic aircraft that had been in the area shortly before the crash turbulence put god in his jet into a spin the pilots were unable to pull their aircraft they needed two hundred three hundred more meters two or three more seconds. here all pilots agree that in a craft can't fall into a spin when it answers turbulence special tests have proven that there is no spin in such situations tell us that you have been in turbulence many times during tests when he answered turbulence your aircraft just you just saw it once you immediately regained control about it so proud of. all the remains of good got into their craft is kept in some twenty sealed barrels this steaming orders to keep just several tons of twisted steel that used to be a training fighter jet for ever there was state commission has not conclusively

established the cause of good got instead. chances are these will someday be open so that people can once again search for answers behind the desk to defer some into across the space frontier. to set up the flying club get in springboard for his rise to fame has been renamed after the first cause may not young people who dream about flying high come here today as they used to in the mid one nine hundred fifty s. . like a first cousin not a future pilot shall off we go as a training aircraft and even run. with
