The 37th Space Symposium has cancelled the first man in space because he was Russian. Yuri Gagarin died this week in 1968 in a plane crash.
“*In light of current world events, the 2022 Space Foundation Yuri’s Night is renamed “A Celebration of Space: Discover What’s Next.” The focus of this fundraising event remains the same – to celebrate human achievements in space while inspiring the next generation to reach for the stars.”
