YURI’S NIGHT BAY AREA 2010
FRIDAY APRIL 9TH THRU SATURDAY APRIL 10TH
This year, the San Francisco Bay Area will be home to the largest Yuri’s Night
celebration in the world at NASA Ames Research Center in Mountain View,
California. Over 15,000 people will join astronauts, artists, musicians,
scien-tists and engineers for two days of learning, celebrating and
connecting with space.
WHAT IS YURI’S NIGHT?
Taking place each year in over 120 cities world-wide, Yuri’s Night commemorates mankind’s first venture into space,
by Russian Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin on April 12, 1961, and the launch of the first Space Shuttle by NASA exactly twenty
years later. It is the largest annual celebration of space exploration — and of mankind’s curiosity, scientific and technical
achievements. Yuri’s Night was founded by members of the United Nations’ Space Generation Forum in September 2000.
After seven months of planning, ultimately sixty Yuri’s Night events were held on April 12th, 2001. Every year, dozens of new
Yuri’s Night events are added to the global space celebration.
