World Aviation and Cosmonautics Day
The International Day of Aviation and Cosmonautics is celebrated on 12 April. On this day in 1961, Yuri Gagarin orbited Earth on the Vostok-1 spacecraft for the first time in the history of mankind, marking the beginning of the era of manned space flight.
Aviation has been one of the fastest growing industries in the world; therefore, the objective of the Antanas Gustaitis Aviation Institute (AGAI) of VILNIUS TECH University is to become one of the regional leaders in the field of training aeronautics specialists, to contribute to the development of the aerospace ecosystem in Lithuania, to carry out scientific and innovation activities and to promote aerospace in Lithuania.
To celebrate the occasion, VILNIUS TECH community members are invited to explore the field of aviation. We would like to present 10 books on this topic, available at ebooks.vilniustech.lt | |
The VILNIUS TECH institutional members can access the e-books free of charge by logging on to the University's computer network and from home by connecting to the VILNIUS TECH network via VPN.
