I believe the answer is:

gagarin

(Other definitions for gagarin that I've seen before include "Yuri --, cosmonaut" , "Yuri ......, first Russian into space" , "circumnavigator" , "Yuri --, space pioneer" , "Yuri . . . . . . . made the first manned space flight" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
