📆 #OTD, on September 11, 1935, German Titov — a legendary Soviet cosmonaut who became the second person in space — was born.

🚀 Titov made his flight on August 6-7, 1961, on the Vostok-2 spacecraft, spending more than a day in space. He became the youngest cosmonaut in history — at the time of his journey, he was only 25 years old. During his mission, Titov was the first in the world to manually control a spacecraft, filmed the Earth from space, and proved the possibility of sleeping and eating in zero gravity.

👩‍🚀 Later, working at the Cosmonaut Training Center and participating in various projects, he made a significant contribution to the development of the USSR space programmes.
