If All Those People Are

The Path Of A Cosmonaut Is Not An Easy, Triumphant March To Glory. You Have To Get To Know The Meaning Not Just Of Joy But Also Of Grief, Before Being Allowed In The Spacecraft Cabin.

If All Those People Are Getting Wet To Welcome Me, Surely The Least I Can Do Is Get Wet Too!

Nothing Will Stop Us. The Road To The Stars Is Steep And Dangerous. But We're Not Afraid . . . Space Flights Can't Be Stopped. This Isn't The Work Of One Man Or Even A Group Of Men. It Is A Historical Process Which Mankind Is Carrying Out In Accordance With The Natural Laws Of Human Development.

To Be The First To Enter The Cosmos, To Engage, Single-handed, In An Unprecedented Duel With Nature-could One Dream Of Anything More?

I See Earth! It Is So Beautiful.
