Features: Throughout history, humanity has longed for wings to conquer time and space, expand the boundaries of knowledge, and explore the mysteries of the universe. In the mid-20th century, the actual development of outer space finally began. The events that unfolded during those unforgettable years profoundly altered the course of human destiny. Yet, it must not be forgotten that only two countries—Soviet Union and the United States—became space powers in the second half of the 20th century. Regrettably, the leaders of both nations first focused on military and political ambitions and ideological conflicts. Is this the time to reflect on the competition for Earth and cosmic supremacy? The author of this book sees a way out of the predicament of technological domination and the stagnation of civilization's development by realizing the ideals of the modern spaceflight pioneer Konstantin Tsiolkovsky and embracing the humanistic perspective of space activities.
