TBH Shimrod, you have helped me fill in a gap in my own memory by having to look it up again!

Ta muchly ;-)

I am surprised this thread has been so under written to. I would have thought there would be many good memory comments on these times past. I wonder if it's because Gagarin was a Russian and that our American cousins have never forgiven them? It would have been great had the world have been involved as much in Russian space feats as they have American ones. The Russians were quite secretive back then until success was assured. The Americans let us have it all, the good and the bad, in their announcements.

No matter. If you take away the Russian and the American preemptors it was mamkind's acheivement all the same
