Assuming that the orientation of a pulsar's velocity vector is parallel to its spin axis, the space velocities of 61 pulsars have been calculated from their tangential velocities. The mean space velocity of the sample is equal to 267 km/s. The radial velocities and kinematical ages of 20 pulsars are obtained. The decay time of the magnetic field of pulsars is 2 Myr, smaller than previously found.
