Ghostship Lanterns may have paid homage to Buzz Aldrin and the Apollo astronauts with their song Hey Buzz, but we're equally in awe of the Russian space pioneers, which is why we liked this story about rocket hero Yuri Gagarin being honoured 50 years after he was first launched into space  in Vostok 1, a tin can tied to a rocket. Good to hear that his statue will be placed in the Mall, too. Yuri, we salute you!
