On October 12, 1964, at 10:30 a.m., a spaceship was launched. It carried three astronauts on board: a commander, a scientist, and a doctor.
For the first time in the world, a flight was made into space by a multi-seater spaceship with a crew on board.
This important space flight became possible because of the development of more powerful rockets for sending spaceships into space.
This flight became the scientific foundation for longer space voyages by larger groups of astronauts.
