Today, in the lands of YouTube, is First Orbit, the movie...
A free movie for you to download and share, created to celebrate the first 50 years of human space flight.
A real time recreation of Yuri Gagarin's pioneering first orbit, shot entirely in space from on board the International Space Station. The film combines this new footage with Gagarin's original mission audio and a new musical score by composer Philip Sheppard.
What I like the most is, it's the Russian side of the coin, and when it come to the space race, we usually only see the USA side of it (as with many many other historical events).
Here is the entire movie:
