Cosmodrome in Baikonur!

I’m at the Cosmodrome in Baikonur!

Unfortunately the Sojus rocket launch has been postponed to July 🙁
but I’ve got to see the launch pad from where the current Soyuz rockets has been launched. it’s still the same pad from where Yuri Gagarin and the Sputnik satellite have been launched off!
In the last picture you can see 4 yellow stars which mean the following events:
1. first launch of a rocket into orbit
2. Sputnik launch
3. Yuri Gagarin’s launch
4. 500th rocket launch!
