I remember Yuri I was 12 years old and we discussed this at school...

I also remember learning that one of the astronauts went “around the world in 80 minutes” (from the Around the World in 80 days” movie..)

the article says Yuri took 108 minutes

was that Gary Shepherd that went around in 80 minutes ???
