Sad to hear the passing of a Russian icon
Gee I thought he was a lot older
His space walk was in 1965 so he would have been 31 yrs old
An amazing achievement considering a near catastrophe when he struggled for nearly half an hour to get back into the spacecraft with his bulky spacesuit through a portable air lock
He also was commander in the joint Soyuz / Apollo rendezvous mission in 1975
RIP
