Issued in the 1960s, this stamp commemorates Alexei Leonov (1934-2019), the Soviet cosmonaut who became the first human to perform a spacewalk, leaving his spacecraft during the Voskhod 2 mission on 18 March 1965. His historic extravehicular activity lasted about twelve minutes and marked a major milestone in the exploration of space, demonstrating that humans could work outside a spacecraft and paving the way for future space missions, orbital construction, and lunar exploration. By issuing this commemorative stamp, the Yemen Arab Republic (Y.A.R.) celebrated one of the most significant achievements of the Space Age and recognized the importance of scientific and technological progress in expanding humanity's knowledge of the universe. The issue highlighted international interest in space exploration and emphasized the role of innovation, research, and peaceful scientific achievement in advancing human civilization.
