New frontiersPosted by Karsten (Dresden, Germany) on 3 January 2007 in Miscellaneous and Portfolio. Soviet rocket "Wostok", on display near the space pavilion at the "All-Russian Exhibition Centre" in Moscow, the ВДНХ (spoken "VDNKh"), which stands for the "Exhibition of Achievements of the National Economy". Gagarin was shot into orbit by a rocket of this class on 12th April 1961. Still impressive, since I have never seen a true scale model of a rocket of this size in real life. Just imagine, that manned space flight exists for only 46 years now.
