Happy birthday, Czech cosmonaut Vladimir Remek!


Vladimir Remek, born September 26, 1948 in the former Czechoslovakia, went into space aboard Soyuz 28 to Salyut 6 in March 1978.  He is the first and, so far, the only Czech citizen to travel into space.

After his only mission, he became a member of the European Parliament and is currently the Czech ambassador to Russia.
