Cosmos
The most interesting facts about the exploration of the cosmos
The conquest of the Cosmos is one of the most significant milestones in the history of Mankind. From ancient times people stared at the stars and could not explain what their attraction was. Dreamers of the past have built fantastic projects to master stars and travel in extraterrestrial spaces. People even now dream of settling on distant planets. On the Moon, all the parcels have already been bought for crazy money. And only in the XX century the critical mass of knowledge of Humanity reached a level when people could overcome the attraction of the Earth and began to master the Cosmos.

<p> The rivalry between the Soviet Union and the United States in the space sphere The designers of both countries, motivated by the primacy in the exploration of the Cosmos, moved not only space science, but also many other scientific branches. </p>
<p> In the late 1950s, the two countries simultaneously gave birth to the idea of creating An airplane that could enter the stratosphere and take another aircraft into Earth's orbit. </p>
<p> In 1965, the design was given to the design bureau by A. Mikoyan, led by a project named "Spiral" by designer G. Lozino-Lozinsky. </p>
<p> It was supposed to create a two-stage system, in which the first aircraft reached a speed of 2 km per second and put into orbit the second aircraft, controlled by the cosmonaut. An interesting fact that it was supposed to use as a fuel the reaction of oxygen and hydrogen. This was successfully implemented in the late 80-ies in the project "Energy-Buran". From the orbit, the aircraft could land on any unpaved airfield. </p>
<p> In the late sixties and mid-70s, a number of successful test flights were conducted. First with unmanned vehicles, and then with pilots. The Soviet project was much better than similar American developments. But in 1969 the works were partially suspended, and after test flights in 1976, the shuttle aircraft Mig-105.11, is completely closed. This allowed the Americans to overtake the USSR in the field of using reusable spacecraft in space exploration. </p>
<p> A similar project "Energy-Buran" also became a one-off show of the achievements of Soviet science in the exploration of the Kosmos </p>

And all the haste, on the 50th anniversary of the revolution needed a successful flight. The Soyuz-1 rocket with Komarov on board rose from the launch on April 23, 1967.
A series of breakdowns of an iron car decided the fate of a living person in it.The solar battery did not open, holding the parachute of the descent vehicle, the automatic braking system failed, the manual system managed to slow the ship’s movement above the calculated point, but the parachute did not open
] At the launch site of the crash, but help cosmon that could do nothing. Gagarin flew from Moscow to Baikonur and began to beg the Queen to put the rocket on the launch. He was ready to go to Vladimir to help, dock and transplant him into his ship. Gagarin was ready … but was not ready equipment. It was not possible at that time to prepare a new start so quickly.
Vladimir Komarov has two graves and two certificates of death. The descent vehicle burnt down with the astronaut in the dense layers of the atmosphere. The country met its 50th birthday without it.

The cigarette saved life
The fact of the tragedy was concealed until the 90s of the XX century.
![The Cigarette saved the life " Because of it, there are no launches on October 24. On this day, in the 1960s, the R-16 rocket exploded at the start, according to the official version, 76 people were killed, including the Marshal MI Nedelin, Commander-in-Chief of the Missile Forces </p>
<p> ] During the explosion, all who were in the 100-meter zone from the rocket, survive b It was a rocket designed by Yangelya, and a few minutes before the start he left to smoke, which saved his life. "Nikita Khrushchev unceremoniously asked him on the phone:" Why did not you die? .. "</p>
<p> From The deputy chief of the range, Major-General Mrykin, went off to smoke with Yangel and assured the designer that he would now smoke a cigarette with him and quit smoking. After the explosion, the Major-General did not quit smoking until the end of his life. All the dead were buried as victims of a plane crash. </p>
