It took him just 108 minutes to orbit the Earth and he returned as the World’s very first space man. To mark this historic flight, film maker Chris Riley of In the Shadow of the Moon fame has teamed up with the European Space Agency and the Expedition 26/27 crew of the International Space Station, to create a new film of what Gagarin first witnessed fifty years ago. By matching the orbital path of the Space Station, as closely as possible to that of Gagarin’s Vostok 1 spaceship, and filming the same vistas of the Earth through the new giant cupola window, astronaut Paolo Nespoli, and documentary film maker Christopher Riley, have captured a new digital high definition view of the Earth below, half a century after Gagarin first witnessed it.
