On the 12th of April, 1961, the Soviet spaceship-sputnik was put in orbit around the Earth with me on board... there was a good view of the Earth, which had a very distinct and pretty blue halo. It had a smooth transition from pale blue, blue, dark blue, violet and absolutely black. It was a magnificent picture. - Yuri Gagarin
