In 2011, on the 50th anniversary of the first human space flight, by Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, the UN General Assembly declared April 12 as International Day of Human Space Flight.
The main objective of "Russian-American History Month" is to provide learning opportunities for the general public, especially students in schools and universities, that will draw attention to the history of Russian Americans and the productive role they have played and continue to play, in the history of the United States.
