Cosmonauts:Birth of the Space Age
Science Museum, London Opens 18 September 2015
In 1957 Russia launched the world's first artificial satellite,
Sputnik, into space and just four years later sent the first ever human –
Yuri Gagarin. Discover the dramatic story of how Russia turned the
dream of space travel into a reality and became the first nation to
explore space in this once-in-a-lifetime exhibition.
Cosmonauts will reveal the most significant collection of Russian
spacecraft and artefacts ever to be shown in the UK. Come face-to-face
with Vostok-6, the capsule flown by Valentina Tereshkova, the first ever
woman in space, and examine the fascinating gadgets cosmonauts need to
live in space, including a shower, toilet, medical instruments and
survival kits for crash landings.
Explore the historical, cultural and spiritual context of Russian
space travel, shaped especially by the turbulent early decades of the
twentieth century. See poignant testimonies and memorabilia belonging to
some of the biggest names in spaceflight and discover the deeply
personal stories of the pioneers who kick-started the space age.
Per la prima volta il pubblico internazionale potrà ammirare la più grande collezione di navicelle spaziali e manufatti sovietici che non erano mai usciti dalla Russia fino ad ora
