When I was a young boy I was a great fan of Yuri Gagarin and he was my idol. I can remember a picture of Gagarin with a white pigeon.He was a great person and a symbol of peace in the world. It was long time ago - now I am 50 years old. It was always a great wish of me to see one time Baikonur space center in my live.
