Aleksey Leonov visited Bratislava on June 18, 2016. He was invited by SOSA - Slovak Organisation for Space Activities.

Mr. Leonov gave the public presentation and answered the questions for sixty minutes, then he signed the books and photos for another half an hour. Even though he was tired at the end he patiently gave autographs for everybody in the queue. He was accompanied by his wife and event organiser officials.

I really did! On the last photo Mr. Leonov just signs my book Soyuz-Apollo published in the former Soviet Union in 1976.

For those who did not have their own photos or book to sign there were the portraits of Mr. Leonov provided by the organizers.

There was also a surprise for the children - each kid received a free book on astronautics signed by the cosmonaut. A great event really!
