How did i first get interested with russian cosmonaut-

um-- well-- im gonna tell it here.

actually this is asked by @la-francaise-de-coeur ! 

so....hmm...it started when i was on grade 5 elementary school (2015).

i read a library book IPTEK (science and technology book) on my school library. i found a part about space...im kinda curious about space...yeah...

 I go to the part "human in space". On there, i see cosmonaut Yuri gagarin, Valentina tereshkova, and astronaut Neil armstrong. i read it, and also i search them on google too. and i was like...wow...yuri gagarin and the others is pretty amazing! a space man!! great!!  he is quietly cute too....after i liked yuri gagarin and valentina tereshkova, i search another cosmonauts like Gherman titov, Andran Nikolayev, Valery Bykovsky, Alexei leonov, Komarov, and more of soviet old era cosmonauts.

when i go up to grade 6, i have a smartphone and i started to post space memes and arts on my instagram. on my school, nobody is know about yuri gagarin. they are just know neil armstrong, kinda sad tbh-- but on instagram, i found an indonesian friend who like/know yuri gagarin too! i was happy! because im indonesian! and the first space otp i made is, gagarin and tereshkova.HEHAHAHAaa~

When i graduated, into middle high school (2016) i watching a tv and they are talking about muslim astronauts. and i found one muslim cosmonaut named...Musa Manarov.

im very curious about him and i go to google to read a wiki about him. from there, i started to know his crew mate, Viktor Afanasyev. viktor...he is calm, cold looking person, and cool! i see manarov and afanasyev are looking friendly together on MIR...and...i started to ship them. i was so exited to draw their fanarts. *screams*

and from that too, there is another cosmonaut named helen sharman and sergei krikalev. krikalev... he is cool! i started to like him <3 and his crewmate Volkov and Jean-Loup chretien. since 2017, i starting too search new-era cosmonauts/astronauts like Sergey Volkov, Oleg Kornienko, Soichi Noguchi, Yuri Malenchenko, Scott Kelly, Chris hadfield, Paolo Nespoli and many more...

Its been 3-4 years i liked them. The cosmonauts. Cosmonauts.

Because they’re cool and an amazing hero.

Maksim Surayev, Gregory Wiseman (NASA) and Alexander Gerst (Germany) participated in winter survival training. This simulates what it would be like if the Soyuz landed in winter and the rescue team could not reach the crew for a couple of days. This crew will be part of ISS expeditions 40/41 starting in May 2014.

Oh god

Thats sounds really wholesome....oh andreaa💕

I HOPE....YOU WILL...😤💕

Y’all I just found this newspaper article about a 16 year old girl who somehow snuck into an invite-only event in NYC just to meet Gus in 1965:

“For five years Andrea Kline has been an ardent fan of astronaut Gus Grissom… and yesterday she finally got to meet him. Grissom exclaimed, ‘You finally made it, Andrea!’ when she popped in front of him and introduced herself at an invitation-only affair in a New York hotel last night. Grissom told his wife, ‘This is my Number One fan.’ … [She] has been writing to Grissom and sending him gifts for five years… Andrea, 16, did not explain how she crashed the affair.”

If that ain’t the most ME thing I’ve ever read… I’m so proud of Andrea, she is so valid 😭

Take a moment, look outside your window. 🌷🌼

Today is the #FirstDayOfSpring in the Northern Hemisphere, also known as the vernal equinox.

#DYK Earth’s tilted axis causes the season? Throughout the year, different parts of Earth receive the Sun’s most direct rays. So, when the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, it’s summer in the Northern Hemisphere. And when the South Pole tilts toward the Sun, it’s winter in the Northern Hemisphere.

These images are of Zinnias. They are part of the flowering crop experiment that began aboard the International Space Station on Nov. 16, 2015, when NASA astronaut Kjell Lindgren activated the Veggie system and its rooting “pillows” containing zinnia seeds.

With Valery Bykovsky’s death last month (on the same day as Gagarin’s death), Alexei Leonov and Boris Volynov are the last two remaining cosmonauts from the Air Force Group 1 selection, the first cosmonauts team
