I recently purchased the United Nations' 50th Anniversary of Human Spaceflight first days covers.

In the UN Philatelic Journal they are publicizing "Space Tours" (an International Exhibition of Space accomplishments) at the Vienna International Centre from 1st to 30th June 2011.

Additionally, Saturday 4th June is being celebrated as "Space Day" at the same venue, with a chance "to meet with representatives of space-faring nations and space agencies."

By the way, the UN spaceflight stamps will be on sale until 12th April 2012.

I also ordered them but have not received them yet. Coincidentally I was recently gifted four 4 cent Project Mercury U.S. Man in Space stamps from a friend who read Footprints in the Dust.
