The celebration honors Yuri Gagarin, who flew into space aboard the Vostok-1 spacecraft 64 years ago. According to their official Telegram channel, the lights at Lakhta Center start shining at 8:00 PM and will continue until 6:00 AM Sunday morning. The TV tower joins the celebration with its architectural illumination beginning at 8:35 PM as part of a nationwide program that includes other towers across Russia. The TV tower lights will remain on until 5:20 AM the next day. Both landmarks previously featured similar lighting displays during International Women's Day celebrations on March 8. City residents can enjoy these bright tributes to space exploration throughout the night. The illuminated buildings serve as reminders of Russian achievements in space history. [/QUOTE]
