At 11:30 Moscow time Alexey Leonov suffered a strong stress: the pulse rate leaped to 143 beats per minute, his breath quickened, the temperature rose to 38 degrees, and he lost 6 kg of weight for a couple of hours. The fact was that the cosmonaut came out to where no man had ever been – outer space. To be precise, we should say that it was the spacesuit with the cosmonaut inside, which was in the outer space. It was tied to Vostok-2 spaceship. Having prowled the Universe, Leonov forced his way to the lock chamber with an effort and came back to the Earth on the next day to paint space landscapes. He could do it from life, so to speak.
