Vostok 4 was a mission in the Soviet space program. It was launched a day after Vostok 3 with cosmonaut Pavel Popovich on board - the first time that more than one manned spacecraft were in orbit at the same time. The two capsules came within 5 km of one another and ship-to-ship radio contact was established.
