Don't forget you can pull a guy or 2 out of Basic Training to get those first launches scheduled, the computer definitely does it and I do it whenever I think I can get Mercury *reasonably* close to being ready next season.  I usually end up scrubbing the launch 'cause Mercury safety isn't there, but sometimes you get an event or a really lucky research roll...

Yeah I should have....

Also another mission

Vostok V


Double failure but he didn't die.... disgraceful.

Alkemia next.

Another double failure, but survived, some prestige!

Vostok has come full circle now, the two man Vokshod is next!

Choppy goes up for a final orbital duration mission.


Yet another failure with landings, but no casualty. The luck of these comrades!

1963

The first two man goes up!

But tragedy! despite all the checks and safety measures taken, their ship fails and they die in orbit...

It's ok Comrade Thexor, and you shall be missed.

Your failure will inspire future cosmonauts not to blow up in big ball of flame.

Strictly speaking, I probably suffocated while helplessly floating in orbit. Though I guess we can go with the explanation that, fearing a slow death, I proceeded to force open the capsule door, held my breath, and jumped towards home.

Sabotage!

The Merricans are afraid of mighty soviet space agency so they resort to dirty tricks!

The scoundrels!

Glory to the Motherland!

Ooh, forum board game? That'll be cool. In the meantime, put me on the cosmonaut/astronaut list for the next game!
