[b]US Space Walk of Fame Museum celebrates Yuri's Night[/b] Tuesday, April 12, 2016, 6:30 to 8:30 PM 308 Pine Street, Titusville, Florida Come celebrate man's first venture into space as we recall the launch of Soviet Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin on April 12, 1961. Gagarin's orbital flight kicked the "space race" into high gear and gave America a new sense of urgency. The Space Walk of Fame Museum will serve chips and drinks and will present a lecture by Gary L. Harris, an expert on Soviet/Russian space suits. Harris is the author of three books, including "The Origin and Technology of the Advanced Extravehicular Space Suit." While writing this book, Gary worked with Isaak P. Abramov the principal life support designer for the Russian Space Suit firm, Zvezda, which builds all Russian pressue and space suits. The event is free and open to the public.
