It says alone, not solo, so you can interpret it as he was first to be the only one in a lunar orbit. But I guess they just forgot about 10.

The photo shows the originally planned crew of Valeri N. Kubasov, left, Aleksei A. Leonov, and Pyotr I. Kolodin. It was replaced a few days before launch by the backup crew.

I won’t argue about anything here. My Japanese friend did them and I warned her she may loose here Japanese citizenship when this gets public ;-)

It is now far from Earth, slowed down all the time by Earth‘s gravity. But at the distance, 3400 mph is still fast enough to escape.

It never ceases to fascinate me how this subject triggers people to proudly show off their complete lack of education and research and their willingness to succumb to some dumb stuff they saw somewhere on the web.

The process was used in the Apollo missions to cool the LM and the EVA suits. Water ran through a porous metal block exposed to the vacuum. Water first sublimated, then an ice crust. Turning water into vapor needs a lot of energy, thus the method is very effective.
The method is still used with EVA suits.
