Millions of people dream of seeing our planet from orbit, but space opens up only to a select few. Everyone has their own way to become an astronaut. Preparing for a space flight is more than a job. This is life itself.
Yuri Gagarin's first flight lasted 1 hour and 48 minutes.
He proved that a person can fly into space, complete tasks and return safely.
This was the first invaluable experience, which became a serious impetus for the development of the world manned cosmonautics.
Over 60 years, the training system has changed significantly, it is already clear what to prepare for during all stages of the flight, however, unlike the first set, now training in the CPC is a large-scale training program.
The usual standard training takes on average from 7 to 10 years.
