The International Day of Human Space Flight is the annual celebration, held on 12 April, of the anniversary of the first human space flight by Yuri Gagarin.
On 12 April 1961, Yuri Gagarin, a Soviet citizen, became the first human to enter outer space. This historic event opened the way for space exploration for the benefit of all humanity.
Space science and technology are contributing to achieving sustainable development goals and increasing the well-being of States and peoples, as well as ensuring the realization of their aspiration to maintain outer space for peaceful purposes.
