Cosmonauts Tereshkova and Bykovsky, Moscow, 1963. Footage of Soviet cosmonauts Valentina Tereshkova (born 1937) and Valery Bykovsky (born 1934) on an aeroplane that brings them to an airport in Moscow, Russia, on 25 June 1963. A red carpet is rolled out for them, and they walk down it to be greeted by Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev (1894-1971) and other officials. Tereshkova had become the first woman in space, with her historic space flight taking place on the Vostok 6 mission of 16-19 June 1963. Bykovsky had flown on the Vostok 5 mission (14-19 June 1963). The Vostok 5 and Vostok 6 flights were joint missions, with the separate spacecraft passing close enough to each other to establish a radio link. | |
