March 6, 2017. Russian President Vladimir Putin and Valentina Tereshkova, cosmonaut, the first woman in space, Hero of the Soviet Union and deputy of the Russian State Duma, during a meeting.

After Yuri Gagarin had become the first man in space in 1961, Soviet cosmonaut Valentina Tereshkova repeated her counterpart's success and traveled into space in 1963, becoming the first female astronaut to see the stars up close.

On March 6, Valentina Tereshkova, as lively and gorgeous as ever, celebrates her 80th birthday.
54 years ago, Tereshkova made history becoming the first woman ever to fly in space, when she launched aboard the Vostok-6 capsule on June 16, 1963, spending three days in orbit and circling the Earth 48 times.
