Bulgaria Marks 45th Anniversary of First Cosmonaut's Historic Space Mission
Forty-five years ago, Bulgaria achieved a significant milestone in its space exploration journey as it sent its first cosmonaut, Georgi Ivanov, into outer space
76-year-old Bulgarian cosmonaut Georgi Ivanov was taken to hospital this morning, reported BNR.
The Military Medical Academy has announced that he has most probably suffered a brain stroke.
On 10 April, 1979 Ivanov took part in flight in space on board the Soyuz 33 spaceship together with Russian Cosmonaut Nikolai Rukavishnikov.
The two spent 1 day, 23 hours and 1 minute in orbit around the Earth but had to return early after a technical failure prevented the docking of Soyuz 33 with Salyut 6 space station.
