Script: Valentina Tereshkova was born in 1937 in Russia. She started working when she was 16. She also joined a local flying club and soon became a talented parachutist. Her talent for skydiving led her to the Soviet space programme. In 1962, while still a factory worker, she was accepted along with three other woman parachutists and a female pilot into the programme. Together, they began intensive training to become cosmonauts. Tereshkova joined the Soviet Air Force. She became an Air Force officer after completing her training and passing an examination. In 1963, at the age of 26, Tereshkova became the first woman to travel in space. Her spacecraft Vostok 6 was guided by an automatic control system. She travelled into space in Vostok 6 on June 16, 1963 and successfully returned to Earth three days later. After her historic space flight, Valentina Tereshkova received many awards, including the Hero of the Soviet Union and the Order of Lenin. She never flew in space again, and later became a test pilot and an instructor. She also completed a degree in technical sciences.
