April 12 is Yuri’s Night. From Wikipedia: "Yuri's Night is an international celebration held every April 12 to commemorate milestones in space exploration. It is named for the first human to launch into space, Yuri Gagarin, who flew the Vostok 1 spaceship on April 12, 1961." -- https://www.nfld.com/~dalton/dtales.html Salmon on the Thorns (mystic page) "This could be the final breath; This is life and death; This is hard rock and water; Out here between wind and flame; Between tears and elation; Lies a secret nation" (Ron Hynes)
