First human spaceflight; launch from Baikonur;
landing near Smelovka north of Usmorye (26 km southwest of Engels). Gagarin had complete radio contact to mission control during his flight. A camera on board sent videos to ground control; the mission was controlled from the mission control, not from Gagarin himself. As planned, he left the capsule before landing with a catapult seat and landed seperate from the capsule using a parachute. |
