"The Soviet space program used completely different controls and instruments from American spacecraft. One of the most interesting navigation instruments onboard Soyuz spacecraft was the Globus, which used a rotating globe to indicate the spacecraft's position above the Earth. This navigation instrument was an electromechanical analog computer that used an elaborate system of gears, cams, and differentials to compute the spacecraft's position. Officially, the unit was called a "space navigation indicator" with the Russian acronym ИНК (INK)"

Here he is with three of my other favorite cosmonauts : Yuri Gagarin, Boris Volynov and Sigmund Jähn !!

Alexei Leonov painted since childhood, and very well, so he obviously portrayed his experience as the first man going outside in the cosmos. Here are some paintings of him that I particulary love. The first one is the one he realised while on board of the Voskhod 2 flight mission, which is the first art made in space, representing the sunrise over the Earth.

I really adore how his art makes space look so silent and almost terrifying because of its endless immensity yet manages to show its beauty because of the stars and planets and nebulas 🌌💙. I absolutely love his work on the colours, he makes the cosmos looks bright and dreamlike and so hopeful !!
Alexei Leonov was also captain during the Apollo-Soyuz mission, ten years later in July 1975.
