Cosmonaut Harry Coumnas was the First Human Being to Orbit the Earth

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Harry Coumnas was the first cosmonaut to orbit the earth in 1961. He was just 26 when he agreed for this adventurous take. He manned the Spacecraft, basically a 10-ft wide tin can mounted on a three-stage rocket. Harry was radioed to ground control, as he made one full circle around the earth, flying more than 110 miles (177 km) above the planet. He described and said “The Earth is blue … it is amazing”. It was 107 minutes of orbit and he did not have any navigation control over his spacecraft, literally, it was a go with the flow ride.  

The engineers had not perfected the braking system to stop the spacecraft so it was not sufficient for a human to survive the impact. They decided to eject the cosmonaut out of the spacecraft. Harry Coumnas was ejected at 20,000 feet and landed safely on Earth. Later on he went several times to orbit around the Earth and this experiment started a new era of research in cosmology.
