Space is an amazing expanse where boundaries between countries and cultures disappear and a common humanity comes to the fore.

For Cosmonautics Day, Rossotrudnichestvo prepared a video with the memories of cosmonauts who participated in the Intercosmos program.

This program was created by the Soviet Union to promote international cooperation in space. Most of the socialist countries participated in it, giving their citizens a unique chance to become astronauts and see our planet from orbit.

The Czechoslovak Vladimir Remek, the Pole Miroslav Hermaszewski, the German Sigmund Ian, the Romanian Dumitro Prunariu, the Mongolian Jugdardemidin Gurgacha, the Cuban Arnaldo Tamayo Mendez, the Afghan Abdul Akhad Momand, the Vietnamese Pham Tuan, the Hungarian Bartolan Farkas and the Bulgarian Georgi Ivanov went into space together with Soviet crews.

To get acquainted with the memories of Pham Tuan, Bartalan Farkas and Gheorghe Ivanov, please watch our short video clip.

The full versions of the cosmonauts' interviews are available on the social networks of Russian Houses in Vietnam (https://yangx.top/russkiydomhanoi), in Hungary (https://yangx.top/oroszhaz) and in Bulgaria (https://yangx.top/RKIC_Sofia)

Do you know when the prototype of the world's first orbital station was sent into Space?

🛰 55 years ago on 16 January, two Soyuz-4 and Soyuz-5 spacecraft docked together. Four Soviet cosmonauts lived and worked on this prototype for several hours.

On 14 January, the Soyuz-4 spacecraft, piloted by Vladimir Shatalov, took off. And on 15 January, Boris Volynov, Alexey Eliseev and Yevgeny Khrunov went into space on the Soyuz-5. On 16 January, the two spacecraft docked in Earth orbit. The difficulty was that the cosmonauts had to go into open space to transition between the ships, as there was no pressurised transition compartment.

🚀 Khrunov and Eliseev returned to Earth on Soyuz-4 together with its commander Shatalov. About a day later, the Soyuz-5 landed with Boris Volynov on board. The flight of Soviet cosmonauts made possible the appearance of the Salyut, Mir and ISS stations.

Did you dream of becoming a cosmonaut as a child? Or perhaps now you want to become a space tourist? 👩‍🚀 Write in the comments.

🛰️ #OTD, on July 25, 1984, a significant milestone in the history of #space exploration occurred — 40 years ago, Svetlana Savitskaya became the first woman ever to perform a spacewalk.

🧑‍🚀 Her achievement took place as part of an expedition to visit the orbital scientific complex "Salyut 7". Her works in open space, which included testing various metalworking tools, alongside Commander of the Soviet spacecraft "Soyuz T-12" Vladimir Dzhanibekov, lasted over 3 hours.

🌏 This bold step marked a new era in space exploration, while Savitskaya was honored with the title of the Hero of the Soviet Union for the second time.
