            Here, Mlyn, why in international news you can find about "In Louisiana, a woman with a child died because of a wind overturning the house," but they generally accidentally mentioned the international space symposium due to the fact that a bust of Gagarin was installed there.
            And figs you will find in the news on this symposium.

      But I’m interested in a question. In Ukraine there must have been memorial signs to Yuri Gagarin. What has happened to Lenin?

      Yes, no problem! Only at first you need to demolish and redirect the funds to the opening of the Cosmonautics Museum in Uryupinsk in Yekaterinburg ..

      I propose in Uryupinsk a bust of Armstorng to plump
      And that would be right! Only not in Uryupinsk, but, for example, in Star City.

      If you think that there are no such conspiracies about Gagarin (and his flight), then
      You are very mistaken. Fortunately, in America, people are much more intelligent and adequate.
      and such nonsense is not carried.

    56 years after the first flight of a Soviet man into space, the Americans opened a monument to him in the regional center. Probably only old people know that Yuri Gagarin is the first cosmonaut of the Earth in the USA. And the media humbly hush up. The pride of the "exceptional" does not allow. Thank you for the monument. We would also in (Uryupinsk) build a monument to some American astronaut.
