I See Earth! It Is So Beautiful.

I Am Watching The Earth. The Visibility Is Good. I Feel Well And Cheerful. The Machine Is Functioning Normally.

The Path Of A Cosmonaut Is Not An Easy, Triumphant March To Glory. You Have To Get To Know The Meaning Not Just Of Joy But Also Of Grief, Before Being Allowed In The Spacecraft Cabin.

What Beauty. I Saw Clouds And Their Light Shadows On The Distant Dear Earth.... The Water Looked Like Darkish, Slightly Gleaming Spots.... When I Watched The Horizon, I Saw The Abrupt, Contrasting Transition From The Earth's Light-colored Surface To The Absolutely Black Sky. I Enjoyed The Rich Color Spectrum Of The Earth. It Is Surrounded By A Light Blue Aureole That Gradually Darkens, Becoming Turquiose, Dark Blue, Violet, And Finally Coal Black.

I Feel Fine. How About You?

I See Earth! It Is So Beautiful.
