About me:
My Name is Sigmund Werner Paul Jähn (born February 13, 1937). I was the first German cosmonaut.
I was born in Morgenröthe-Rautenkranz, Vogtland, Germany. From 1943 to 1951 I attended school in my hometown, and after school trained as a printer. In 1955 i joined the East German air force (the Luftstreitkräfte der NVA) where i became a pilot and military scientist. From 1966-1970 i studied at the Gagarin Military Air Academy in Monino, in the Soviet Union, and afterwards worked in the administration of the East German air force, responsible for pilot education and flight safety.
In 1976 i was selected together with his later backup Eberhard Köllner to train as the first cosmonaut in the Intercosmos program. I trained in Star City near Moscow for the next two years, and finally flew on board Soyuz 31 to the Soviet space station Salyut 6, and returned with Soyuz 29. For this flight, i was celebrated as the first German cosmonaut, which is remarkable as in those days, both East and West Germany normally stressed that people who achieved similar deeds were citizens of their respective states. I spent 7 days, 20 hours, and 49 minutes in space.
I was awarded the title Hero of the Soviet Union on September 3, 1978 [1] In 1983 i received a doctorate in physics at the "Zentralinstitut für Physik der Erde" in Potsdam, specialising in remote sensing of the earth.
Starting in 1990, (after reunification) i worked as a freelance consultant for the (formerly West) German spaceflight agency DLR, and from 1993 also for the ESA to prepare for the Euromir missions. In 2002 he finally retired from this job.
Sigmund Jähn is married and has two children. I enjoys reading and hunting.
Asteroid 17737 was named Sigmund Jähn in 2001.

"In the vein of Solaris, K-PAX
and The Man Who Fell to Earth,
PROXIMA is a refreshing film full of wonder."
(LONDON SCI-FI FESTIVAL)
"If you’re looking for something different
in science fiction from your traditional lasers
and alien monsters, check out
Carlos Atanes’s PROXIMA.
Remember Proxima is not just a place,
it’s a state of mind… literally."
(NIC BROWN, B MOVIE MAN)

Hi there! I have a new track in my player called KEPLER MISSION. It celebrates the great man Johannes Kepler himself. And the International Year of Astronomy. And of course the NASA mission of the same name. Have a listen, please!
HAWKWIND
is one of my major musical influences. To celebrate the 40th
anniversary of one of the most extraordinary bands in music history I
have done, with my humble means, a tribute video you can find on
YouTube.
I'd
be delighted if you find the time to take a look and tell me what you
think!
