The first death on a space mishap

      Have you ever been curious of what the space really looks out there? Obviously, we have seen the pictures already based upon the astronauts/cosmonauts who have been there capturing the image of the heavenly bodies out there. It is so much wonderful seeing the wonders of nature up above or all around us. For my today’s topic, it would have to do with the space history. Particularly in the mission that has gained a lot of attention around the world because of it’s marvelous explorations in it. But behind this wonders, there should one tragic accident that started the entire exploration made it more costly and a sort of gamble towards space people’s lives.

   I’m talking about the first death that ever happened in space exploration history. It’s the death of Mr. Vladimir Komarov of the Soviet Union. It happened at about April 24, 1967, it was so tragic that even me including me a reader, could hardly imagine the painful death of Mr. Komarov almost 49 years ago today. it happened when his landing capsule hit the earth at a very fast speed. The speed is estimated to be about several hundred miles per hour. It is unbelievable how a human would feel in such plunging speed upon it’s death during that time. It is a matter of waiting for your own self to face death that fast. It is considered to be the first ever death on a space craft accident, and probably the most devastating one.

  There’s a saying where in we would say, no pain no gain. But to this one, it would serve this event as a learning experience to all of us, that for every success that we do, there’s always a risk no matter what happen. It’s life, we must gamble to gain success, knowledge and fame, we must do anything inorder for us to be that productive to our fellow men.  Today, is the birthday of Mr. Vladimir Komarov. He was born on March 16, 1927, if he was alive he would be 89 years old. He died of the spacecraft accident at age 40.
