Juri Gagarin was the first human in space 1961. Now it's your turn to guide the Kerbals on their first manned orbital flight. Assemble your own spacecraft and follow in the footsteps of Vostok's flight around the planet to learn about changing orbits and re-entry.
In this mission, you have more freedom over the make of your spacecraft and the course of your flight, preparing you for more independent missions in the future. In the process, you can compare your experiences and progress with Gagarin's flight in 1961 - what differences there are and what similarities?
