Yuri Gagarin: First Orbit

Today marks the 50th anniversary of Yuri Gagarin’s incredible journey as the first human being to make it to outer space. While folks all over the world may be celebrating Yuri’s Night, you can share in the celebration by checking out First Orbit.

Combining footage shot from the International Space Station with the music of composer Philip Sheppard, Gargarin’s voice is timed and matched, to recreate his recordbreaking flight. While this is just the trailer for the movie, you can view/download the whole film at FirstOrbit.org.
