πŸ§‘β€πŸš€ On March 6, 1937, Valentina Tereshkova was born – the world’s first female cosmonaut. To this day, she remains the only representative of the fair sex who visited the earth’s orbit alone, as well as the youngest woman to travel into space. At the time of the historical event, she was only 26 years old.

Valya joined the cosmonaut corps in 1962. She was selected from 800 girls who showed themselves in parachuting. At that time, Tereshkova had 163 parachute jumps under her belt.

In June 1963, the girl told her family that she was leaving for a parachute competition. Only from the news did they learn that their Valya actually spent almost three days on the Vostok-6 spacecraft, making 48 revolutions around the Earth.

πŸ’¬ β€œEvery hour and a half, the dawn greeted me. The sun rose in a unique range of colors,” Tereshkova shared her impressions.

At the same time , Vostok-5 was in orbit, piloted by cosmonaut Valery Bykovsky , with whom Tereshkova maintained radio contact. Despite fatigue and poor health, the female astronaut successfully completed her mission.

❗️Tereshkova’s space flight created a world sensation. For the United States, the USSR’s main rival in the space race, this event was something unthinkable. The American space agency did not take the idea of ​​a woman flying into space seriously at the time.

Valentina boarded the spaceship as a lieutenant, and returned to Earth with the rank of captain. Three days after landing, she was also awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union . Subsequently, she was awarded the title of Hero of Socialist Labor of Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria, Vietnam and Mongolia, and became an honorary citizen of 18 Russian and foreign cities.

The entry into orbit of a Soviet woman enriched scientific knowledge about the influence of space conditions on the human body and reaffirmed the leadership of the USSR in space exploration.

🎊 Today Valentina Vladimirovna turns 87 years old. Congratulations to our legendary cosmonaut, we wish you health and strength for new achievements!
