Yuri Gagarin is a Soviet cosmonaut, the first man on Earth to fly into space, hero of the USSR.
The Stargift collection features Yuri Gagarin's autograph on the graduation photo of the 10th "B" class of Chkalovsky Secondary School No. 14. 1963. On the back are the signatures of some graduates.
Chkalovskaya school No. 14 (now Lyceum No. 14 named after Yuri Gagarin in Shchelkovo-3) opened in 1958. The first graduation took place in 1961, the cosmonaut himself was present, and in the same year the school was named after him.
Shchelkovo City District is associated with the history of space exploration. Such famous cosmonauts as Vladimir Komarov, German Titov, Alexey Leonov and many others lived on its territory — their names are also immortalized in the names of streets and schools, which include Chkalovskaya Secondary School No. 14.
Since the school began its work in 1961, the management of the educational institution had the idea to appeal to Yuri Gagarin with a request that the school bear his name. The students, together with the teaching staff, wrote a letter with a detailed account of their affairs and a petition. Yuri Alekseevich personally replied to this letter and gave a positive response. So, since 1961, the school began to bear his name. It has become a good tradition to hold a School Day on April 12.
Less than a month after the flight into space, 27-year-old Gagarin went on a foreign tour. For several years, residents and top officials of about 30 countries, including France, Cuba, and India, greeted the first cosmonaut with enthusiastic greetings, flowers, and gifts. As part of the international tour, Gagarin also visited Great Britain. The British Queen personally wanted to see a man who had been in space. Elizabeth II was so impressed by the resourcefulness and charm of the cosmonaut that for the first time she violated royal etiquette and asked Gagarin to take a picture with her. She explained to those present: "I took a picture with a heavenly, that is, unearthly, person and therefore did not violate anything."
