60 years ago today, 300 miles above Earth, a Russian cosmonaut left the confines of his Voskhod 2 capsule to become the first human to walk in space. Alexei Leonov made history by spending 24 minutes in the vacuum of space, attached to the capsule by a tether. While Leonov was truly going where no man had been before, spacewalks are now a frequent feature of space travel. #space #spacewalk #nasa #iss #internationalspacestation #learnontiktok #spacetok | Yahoo UK
