was all for the best. Nice and legal, too. Tell that to 170 million Americans. How could President Eisenhower, who as captain of the West Point football team resorted to any mean trick to win, let
the Soviets beat the US into space? The story at the time, it must be recalled, was that Ike was surrounded by aides
and advisors who were in the pay of foreign governments. 1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybB8WESJ89w

Ilyushin, first, on April 7, crashed in China, so Gagarin was sent on April 12. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7npNk3EGKBQ A similar documentary, presented with a show host, appears as: Stolen Glory The Cover-Up of Cosmonaut

Red Space Myth
and Misconception (one
of two episodes) This
documentary recounts that Ilyushin denied being with the first group of cosmonauts. Soviet archives recently released
back him up. He maintained that the April 7 flight was the last test flight before Gagarin's flight and that it contained
a dummy rather than a cosmonaut. Still, some believe Illyushin felt obligated
to deny involvement with the cosmonauts and that he was actually the first man in space. Go
