📝 Summary

Hero of the Soviet Union, pilot-cosmonaut of the USSR, State Duma Deputy Valentina Tereshkova celebrates her birthday - 88 years. With the legendary "Seagull" spoke the crew of the TV channel "Russia 1".

Tereshkova visited the Museum "Cosmos" in the Yaroslavl region. “Opening the door to a museum is like being in space. You did a great job of exposition, she said. The first female cosmonaut shared memories of the origin of the call sign “Seagull”. I was so lucky to be among those considered by the chief designer Sergey Korolev. We had a call sign on the ground "Birch" as we prepared. But Korolev came to a meeting one day and said, "How do you feel about the fact that the call sign will be Seagull?" So this call sign refers to the Queen, and for us it is sacred, like everything he said. Valentina Tereshkova flew into space on June 16, 1963. Her call sign, Seagull, was recognized by the whole planet. In space, she spent almost three days, making 49 orbits around the orbit of the Earth. “The first flights absorbed what had been developed in science and space. It stays for life. Flights were challenging at the time, but each of us brought something new to the development, starting with Gagarin. With his name, many of my colleagues are now flying into space, Tereshkova said. Museum "Cosmos" in the village of Nikulskoye Tutaevsky district, dedicated to Tereshkova, in early March celebrated its 50th anniversary.
