History of International Day for Human Space Flight

International Day for Human Space Flight takes place across the world on April 12. The day celebrates the first space flight and the first human being in space — the great Soviet cosmonaut, Yuri Gagarin. This historic event opened up experiences for humanity like never before. Following Gagarin’s flight to space, there was a renewed enthusiasm for the study of spaces and the cosmos. The day also celebrates humankind’s remarkable progress in building a sustainable relationship with space and using the knowledge for the betterment of every inhabitant of our planet. International Day for Human Space Flight is a celebration of scientific temperament.

History of International Day for Human Space Flight

On April 12, 1961, the world as we knew it changed forever. It was on this date that the first human space flight took off with Yuri Gagarin in it. What a remarkable day for human innovation and perseverance! This event was a pioneer in making the way for space exploration that would benefit all humanity. After Gagarin’s flight, the United Nations General Assembly realized that all of humankind shared a common interest in promoting and expanding the study and use of outer space.

But years before humans would make their way to space, on October 4, 1957, the first human-made satellite — Sputnik I — was launched into outer space. One can agree that this event opened the way for space exploration and possibly sowed seeds for human visits, too. On April 12, 1961, Gagarin became the first human to orbit the Earth — this was a remarkable achievement that occurred only a few years after humans began to study space using modern technology.

Years later, after Gagarin’s space trip, the UNGA described the trip as an “amazing history of human presence in outer space and the remarkable achievements since the first human spaceflight.” At this point, it must be noted that only two years later, the Soviet Union sent Valentina Tereshkova into space, thus making her the first woman to orbit the Earth. Only seven years from then, Neil Armstrong became the first human to land upon the surface of the moon in July 1969. And in July 1975, the U.S. and the Soviet Union launched the first international human mission in space — docking the Apollo and Soyuz spacecraft together. In only a span of 15 years, humankind made progress in space exploration unlike ever before.

Spacesuits are expensive

One day on Venus

Footprints on the moon will last forever

Saturn can float in water

Mercury is the hottest planet — the temperatures may rise to 842 degrees Fahrenheit.

A NASA spacesuit is priced at $12,000,000.

Macaws, LC Site, NM. Some zoomorphs that are generally thought to depict macaws. The Pueblo Culture likely traded for macaws with southern tribes, based on macaw skeletons that were found at Pueblo sites. There’s even speculation that live birds were transported over 1,000 miles from Mesoamerica to be bred in Pueblo cities. At Chaco Canyon, 14 macaw skeletons were found in a single room with a large deposit of guano on the floor, suggesting the room was an aviary. 

The hooked beak and prominent tail feathers on these glyphs look like macaws to me, especially Slide 1, which has a ceremonial feel to it with the pair of birds. The glyphs in this area are mostly attributed to the Pueblo Culture (primarily Pueblo IV 1350-1600 CE).

lc musical clips pt.5!! can't believe this reaches 5 parts. to be fair, the more i watch the cooler the actors are and the more i love each of their quirks.

funfact before we start, if we exclude CMZ(bcs wtf. you are not 124 y/o CMZ), the average age of LG actors is 28 while the average age of CXS actors is 25 (I didn't take their birth month into account so give or take one)

The oldest being Du Guangyi at 34 y/o and the youngest being Jing Yangqiao at 20 (21 this April).

(pt.1, pt.2, pt.3, and pt.4 here)

68. BONUS, the composer for the musical songs, metablue, posted a composing diary/vlog of her making 'forget about it' aka the encore sofa song. It's a really cool watch, and it's pretty short too.

69. 14/03/2024, Wang Minhui made Cai Qi laugh and break character so hard by sliding on the table that they skip rock paper scissors altogether. Thank youu shimmeringweeds for finding this clip, youre a life saver.

70. 15/03/2024, Zi Bowen is really fun/bratty during CX and his mom's song, he's also been really into that hat and his panicked face during 'Dive Back in Time' tutting is gold. Other than that, Ji Xiaokun and Guo Hongxu are fun as usual.

71. Zhang Jiahao short vid, I love how nonchalant he is. Who gives a damn abt rehearsals when you can play basketball. We got snippets of other songs. And where did he get the random card reader??

(ooh, i'm putting the side actor into focus for once. also, i just realized ZJH is the actor who started swinging when WMH mistook director Li Haolin's name lol i love him.)

72. 16/03/2024 day, blind dog Cai Qi is so funny plss and the way Wang Minhui just let him live with the consequences.

73. 17/03/2024 night, Du Guangyi focused but you can hear Teng Chunpeng cutely messed up 'Dive Back in Time' in the background.

74. 23/02/2024, I don't think I've shared this clip of Du Guangyi playing pattycake(?? IDK the english name. I call it mimimi) with Wu Hanglu.

75. 18/03/2024, Bai Zhuoming mic mishap here, aggressive feet flailing with Wang Minhui and Deng Xianling, and also extended rock paper scissors!

76. 17/03/2024 day, I'll be honest I miss Ding Xingchen. That said, him and Xian Dongyue are having the best sibling wrestle.

78. 16/03/2024 night, Guo Hongxu fumbles the sofa/leg choreo again (left leg first man!), Shu Rongbo blubbering bcs GHX twist his arm post-RPS, and Wu Hanglu being the teasing big sister ever.

77. 17/03/2024 day, same performance as above, and there's Wu Yihan doing overhead RPS.

79. 21/03/2024, he once did overhead, now Wu Yihan is doing hip-height RPS, and he cheated. Shu Rongbo being confused. And they once again give the cutest hug, even for a side hug.

(heh, funny how JXK likes to hogs/blocks the sofa to annoy LG meanwhile SRB is always clearing the sofa for LG.)

80. 23/03/2024 day, very fun performance with Wang Yifei, Zhu Hanbin, and Deng Xianling. I highly recommend watching this. It's so fun I wrote a whole post about it. Also, harmonizing.

81. 22/03/2024, very short but look!! A Jing Yanqiao clip!!! I'm happy, I recently brainrotted on him. I wish he could perform more since I really like his voice but unfortunately I'm pretty sure he's still in school and have a limited schedule. But I will make you all love him before his BDay!

Today's bonus clip is a voice reel of Du Guangyi as Enforcer from the game Arknights! It's very soothing, I can fall asleep to his voice. He's so cool, he's an actor in everything. Musical actor, stage-play actor, TV and films actor, voice actor, he was a child actor too.

But since that's not a musical and it's kinda cheating, here's an actual bonus clip of Zhu Hanbin in Dr. Bloodthirsty (? 嗜血博士) musical. A small 3 person play which is giving me Jekyll and Hyde vibes. He's playing Jonathan, a young psychologist called to examine patient 13. It's really cool, please check it out!

(if anyone ever have a request on who the next bonus clip should be (even the side actors) just say so and I'll do my best. i'm always up for exploring new things)
