That was pretty much the attitude of NASA's astronauts, though. It wasn't that NASA and the US couldn't do as much automation as the Soviets (if anything the former were more sophisticated with computers and programming than the latter), but NASA's astronauts wanted, perhaps even demanded, that they do the flying rather than computers. Obviously some critical parts of each mission, such as the launch sequence and staging, were automated, but overall NASA's astronauts were given a lot more manual control because that's how they preferred it to be. Of course, this still doesn't mean you're wrong, as Scott Manley is not a highly trained test pilot and astronaut, but I'm just saying that NASA's astronauts felt the same way for their own reasons.

Gagarin's phrase in English would be something like “Let's ride”. The flight was fully automated since nobody new if a man can pilot one at all. Remember that was the first flight. Medics fully believed that conditions of the spaceflight can knock a person unconscious or alter their perceptions in some major way. Russian space tests were on dogs and they were not really fond of zero G going full berserk on those capsules. Tyuratam was basically a test launch site to get all the tech straight for Baikonur spaceport that was still under construction. The name was taken from a small village situated nearby, which was a common practice for all kinds of industrial complexes in USSR (practice being - name the thing same as the closest town while it is under construction and then give it some pompous formal name after it is operational). Baikonur spaceport was chosen as a name for the whole complex of launch sites and infrastructure. They are in the same area. Tyuratam even served as Baikonur's reserve launch site after the latter became fully operational. So no renaming really occurred, they just used a formal name of the spaceport and not the working name of the launch site in the international announcement. Makes sense, if you ask me.

Now obviously a normal person couldn't run a sub 10s 100m (mostly because they wouldn't accelerate fast enough), but running 10m/s for a moment shouldn't be out of reach for a reasonably athletic person. That said hitting the ground from a fall at 10m/s is very different than running 10m/s since in the fall you go from 10m/s to 0m/s in an instant.

Yes, you are correct. It does say "Manual Control". And the light below that says "Oxygen flow." Oddly enough it was not lit the entire flight! Whoever made this mod should have worked a little more on the entire instrument panel to reflect appropriate information regarding the inner workings of the spacecraft.

I mean Yuri did have one chance to go into space again aboard the first manned Soyuz flight, but with the way that things had been going it was not going to be a guarantee he'd come back in one piece. Hence why Vladimir Komarov, the other guy that was actually in line in front of him for the task, elected to go instead, even though he knew the risk as he knew Gagarin's legacy, and didn't want to see someone he greatly respected to possibly die on this sketchy as hell mission. Unfortunately, that was only good for Gagarin's sake as Komarov's craft did not deploy its parachute upon reentry and slammed into the ground at high speed.

Gagarin's flight qualifies in all respects for a first. He took off in a spacecraft and landed with a part of that spacecraft. The Apollo program did the very same thing. Nothing that might be said about this subject affects Gagarin's courage or his own perception of this historic flight.

Janusz Kowalski You misunderstand. I was saying that ion drives are the rocket science equivalent of watching paint dry. It's true even with KSP's stock ion drives, and those are ridiculously overpowered when compared to reality. Not that I mind. The design choice to make Kerbin very dense results in quasi-realistic rocket sizes (okay not really, but at least they aren't tiny), but more importantly the relatively small size means that launching a rocket takes quite a bit less time than it does in real life. It's quite literally a difference between minutes and hours.

I know westerners have a hard time believing the extent to which the eastern governments were willing to take things back in the soviet era. For people that got to experience living in the communist block, the secret police, having your phone calls monitored, your lifetime neighbor being a secret state informant turning you in for making "inappropriate" jokes about the regime, people being picked up from their homes in the middle of the night never to be heard from again, and the list goes on... It's true that we have no evidence of actual deaths during the Russian space program, but coming from a regime who would send a man to be tortured and die in a political prison, just for talking about democracy with his friends one day, how hard is it to imagine what that government would do, only to save face in the eyes of the world... It's funny how, when talking about the WW2, everyone thinks the most suffering caused by that war was caused by the nazis, and then everyone thinks about the holocaust. And it's true, that was a very dark period in history. But what about the 50 years of rough communist oppression that the easterners had to endure after the west drew a line on the map and threw millions of people to the Russians.

Actually Gagarin controlled his ship during flight. Automated systems at that time wasn't really good and final orbit was too high - if Gagarin was just sitting and doing nothing - he would died because it would take ship about two weeks to 'dive' naturally into atmosphere. So he needed to orientate ship and 'make burn' to lower the orbit. And also there was quite funny story about this code. Before the flight there were some considerations about how man would feel in space. To make sure that pilot was not panicked he provided some task - he should calculated some formula and the result was the code. The idea was - if pilot is able to calculate right answer - he is totally in control of his nerves. But before flight started two people (one of them was Korolev) independently and secretly told him this code. :)
@jsok574 жыл бұрын
The other man who shared the secret code with Yuri Gagarin was Mark Lazarevich Gallai, who was the instructor-methodologist and space pilot trainer for the 1st cohort (Gagarin's cohort-of-6) of USSR cosmonauts. And it was Gallai who routinely used the phrase "Поехали!" ("Poekhali!", "Let's ride!") when giving the 'ready-set-go' commands during cosmonauts training on simulators. Yuri Gagarin repeated this phrase at 'Vostok-1' lift-off on April 12, 1961. Also, there was the 3rd person, who independently (and secretly!) shared the '125' code with Yuri Gagarin. That was Oleg Genrikhovich Ivanovsky, the 'Vostok-1' lead spacecraft designer. He was up there supervising the 'Vostok-1' lid closure.

Very careful where they land because of the the cold war? Even after the end of the cold war, countries are very careful about where their space ships(and any flying vehicles) land. What space craft were ever designed to be piloted vs automatic? I do not understand how the fact that the space ship was controlled by a computer took anything away (rather I think it shows off how well designed and programmed their craft was).

+asparwhite86 It's strictly in contrast to the Mercury capsule, which was frequently hand-flown. There's an expression, "SPAM in a can," that describes how American astronauts felt their Soviet counterparts were treated. It basically means the cosmonauts were just payload, vs. astronauts being pilots. Was it accurate? Not necessarily - Gagarin had his override code, after all. But it's a reflection on the centralized and heavily authoritarian Soviet system that the spacecraft was designed to be operated first in a ground-controlled mode and only secondarily by its pilot.
