Today 50 years back on April 12, 1961 Yuri Gagarin was the first human to journey into outer space and Google never forgets to put up the doodle for this/every historical event.
This doodle animates the rocket moves up into the air with “yuri gagarin- the russian cosmonaut ” at the bottom.This wasn’t Google’s first animated doodle as nowadays google doodles are made of HTML5 and css3.
Hover the mouse over the logo to see the movement of spacecraft.
Yuri gagarin unfortunately died in a accident when the rocket carrying him blasted at baikonur cosmodrome during a training.
