Cosmonauts: Birth Of The Space Age at the Science Museum looks at Russia's adventures in space in the 1950s and 1960s, revealing the most significant collection of Russian spacecraft and artefacts ever to be shown in the UK. In 1957 Russia launched the world's first artificial satellite, Sputnik, into space and four years later sent the first human - Yuri Gagarin. This exhibition will explore the dramatic story of how Russia became the first nation to explore space. On display will be Vostok 6, the capsule flown by Valentina Tereshkova, the first ever woman in space; Voskhod 1, the first crewed spacecraft; and LK-3 Lunar Lander, a single cosmonaut craft built to compete with the Apollo.
