Vladimir Putin established new state award
Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree establishing a new state award - the Order of Gagarin. According to the document, the state award will be awarded for success in the space sector, such as a successful human-crewed spacecraft flight.
The award will also be given for outstanding achievements in the training of scientists, engineers, and other specialists in this field, for achievements in the development, production, testing, and trouble-free operation of rocket and space technology, creating and implementing new technologies, and research.
Another reason is the merits of implementing the state policy in the field of space, including in the interests of the defense and security of the Russian Federation.
