"Spacewalk" a great Russian movie

[Streetrod]

I have just watched a Russian movie called Spacewalk about the first Russian mission into space that allowed one of the cosmonauts to spacewalk. It's a great movie and so refreshing to get a view of the space race from the Russian perspective.

Its a new movie and I found it on a streaming site. Its subtitled but very much worth a look if you can find it and have an interest in such things

That sounds like it might be worth watching. Alexei Leonov is a great character and probably would have been the first Russian on the moon, if they'd been able to get their moon rocket to work.

"First in Space" is a Russian film about Gagarin and the first manned spaceflight which is well worth a watch.

Alexei was Helen Shaman's mentor and has allowed us to name our first facility after him. A gentleman and both a true pioneer and a fearless human being.
