And we go to Eternity,
Where the starry tale is
And Milky Infinity,
Where the stars give us Tenderness,
Changing its spectrum.
And promises fidelity
Foggy Unreality! /Pause/
After man invented the airplane and conquered the sky, people wanted to go higher. One of the first to think about space flights was the Russian scientist Konstantin Eduardovich Tsiolkovsky.
K.E. Tsiolkovsky is the pride of Russia, one of the fathers of astronautics, a great scientist.
In 1955, a decision was made to build a launch pad for space rockets.
It was in Kazakhstan, far from large populated areas.
The location of the cosmodrome is BAIKONUR.
All the most cherished dreams of the founders of astronautics were brought to life by Sergei Pavlovich Korolev
October 4, 1957 became a significant date in the history of the country - the first artificial Earth satellite was launched. The space age has begun.
The first satellite of the Earth was a shiny ball made of aluminum alloys and was small - with a diameter of 58 cm and a weight of -83.6 kg.
On November 3, 1957, the second artificial satellite was launched, and on May 15, 1958, the third. The launch of satellites made it possible to begin the study of outer space.
Scientists were faced with the task of putting a living creature into orbit. Dogs paved the way to space for humans. Animal testing began in 1949. The first “cosmonauts” were recruited in the gateways - a total of 32 dogs were caught.
Doctors believed that mongrels were not capricious, unpretentious, and easy to train.
The weight of the dogs had to be 6 kg, and their height should not be higher than 35 cm.
The first dog race took place on July 22, 1951.
The mongrels Dezik and Gypsy survived the flight successfully! Gypsy and Desik climbed 110 km, then the cabin with them freely fell from a height of 7 km. At this mark the parachute opened, and both “cosmonauts” landed safely. The second launch ended in failure: the parachute did not open and Desik and his partner Lisa died. During the entire period of experiments - until the spring of 1961, 29 rockets with animals were launched, and 10 dogs died. In addition to dogs, guinea pigs, monkeys, parrots, mice, and rabbits flew into space - all of them honestly served the great dream.
This is a monument to the dog Laika, who flew into space on the second artificial satellite on November 3, 1957.
Since 1952, they began to practice animal flights in spacesuits.
August 20, 1960 a spaceship was launched with dogs on board Belka and Strelka.
On April 12, 1961, Russian citizen Yuri Alekseevich Gagarin went into outer space on the Vostok spacecraft.
He became a space pioneer for all mankind.
Student:
Everyone recognized him by his smile -
There was never a second smile like this!
The whole world applauded! Everyone rejoiced:
Gagarin flew around our globe!
Since then, unknown distances have approached,
Ships are exploring space...
And he started - a Russian, nice guy,
Gagarin is the first cosmonaut on Earth!
Since 1968, the domestic Cosmonautics Day has received official worldwide recognition after its establishment world day aviation and astronautics.

The general concept of space and the idea of space exploration can raise many questions. Why is Pluto not a planet? Is it possible to hear anything in space? How many space stations are currently in space? What happens when an astronaut emits gases in space?
Do you want to know the answers to these and many other questions? Here are 25 space facts you always wanted to know!
25. How old is the Sun?
The sun is about 4.6 billion years old. A billion is a thousand million.
24. Do astronauts really wear diapers?
Yes: during the spacecraft's launch, return to Earth, and everything else they do outside the spacecraft or space station. Although they are not called “diapers”, they are called “maximum absorption garments” (MAG).
23. Is it true that in space no one can hear you scream?
Well, yes. What we hear is sound waves, which are actually vibrations in the air. There is no air in space, so there is nothing to vibrate there. Light and radio waves travel through space, but they do not need air to travel like sound waves.
22. When will Halley's comet fly by again?
Halley's Comet will be visible from Earth again in 2061. Interesting fact: Mark Twain was born the year Halley's Comet passed by (1835) and died the next time it passed the Earth (1910). A year before his death, Mark Twain said: “I came with Halley’s Comet, and I must go with it.”
21. Why is space black?
Because in the vast majority of the universe there is nothing, including light. Or maybe there is light in the black space we're looking at - we just can't see it with the human eye, or the light waves are hundreds of light years away.
20. When will we actually go to Mars?
Currently, it looks like a mission to Mars planned for 2030 is our most realistic timetable. One of the main problems associated with sending people to Mars is finances.
That's all for now more people are demanding money for NASA from the government, looking at the success of private programs like Space X, it is possible that the private sector or collaboration could help get us to Mars.
19. Are there really “spy satellites” in space?
You can rest assured! In fact, Japan just launched one such satellite in March - Radar 5 - to monitor North Korea. Thanks for your attention, Japan!18. The full moon falls on a different day each month, so how long does the lunar cycle last?
27.3 days
17. What are the names of the planets in our solar system, and what do their names mean?
With the exception of Earth, all the planets in our solar system are named after gods and goddesses from ancient Greek or Roman mythology.
Pluto was the god of the underworld; Mercury was the messenger of the gods; Venus was the goddess of love and beauty. Uranus was the god of the sky; Saturn was ancient Roman god agriculture; Mars was the god of war, Jupiter (the largest planet in our solar system) was named after the thunder god; Neptune was the god of the seas.
16. Then why was the Earth given this name?
Actually, it is unknown. What we do know is that the word "earth" is derived from English and German words meaning "ground." Our planet is stunningly beautiful, mostly covered in water, and we call it... Earth. Hello humanity!
15. Is there really a mysterious “Planet X” that we cannot see in our solar system?
Likely. NASA has found evidence of a Neptune-sized planet in an even larger orbit around the Sun than Pluto, which astronomers calculate makes one complete orbit around the Sun every 10,000 years.
14. Is it really possible to get “cosmic madness”?
No? But mental health problems on Earth would also exist in space, and if the stress of spaceflight was a trigger, astronauts could have a breakdown or case of illness manifesting in space, so... yeah?
NASA conducted two separate studies in the area mental health astronauts (one on the ISS, the other on the defunct Mir space station), and the only interesting thing that appeared in the reports was “some tension”, which in principle is something that can happen to ANY person living at work with your colleagues. This did not negatively affect the overall mood or cohesion of the group.
The test, which simulated a year on Mars, began on Earth and ended in 2016. Study participants could not leave their habitat further than 366 meters unless they were wearing spacesuits. There was some tension and stress, as well as some interpersonal problems.
Like dorm roommates, some become friends for the rest of their lives, while others won't even be friends on Facebook. So there is no concrete evidence that time spent in space causes any space-specific mental health problems. However, if a person has them on Earth, then he will have them after he leaves the Earth (theoretically).
13. What happens if you fart in space?
Well, first of all, the released gas won't move, because there's no gravity for the heavier air to move anywhere, and there's no air currents for it to spread out.
A person is simply left alone in this gas “cloud”. Fortunately, spacesuits are made with modifications that filter such... hmm... gases, and astronauts find own ways Minimize the exposure of other crew members to their gases, such as by doing this in less-used sections of the ISS.
12. Why do stars appear to twinkle or blink?
Because their light must penetrate various layers of gases in our atmosphere. Think of it as light passing through water, which distorts the light and causes it to "sparkle". The same basic principle applies in this case.
11. Can blood really boil in space if a person is without a spacesuit?
Yes. This has to do with how pressure affects the boiling point of liquids. The lower the pressure, the lower the boiling point because it is easier for molecules to move around and begin to change from liquid to gas. This is why water on Elbrus, for example, boils faster than on the coast of the Caspian Sea. Thus, in the vacuum of outer space, the boiling point of blood can drop to normal temperature bodies.
10. What is the temperature in space?
Various. Some parts of outer space, such as near the stars, are quite hot: there you can instantly evaporate into hot ash. While in other parts, in deep darkness and on the surface of some planets facing away from the suns or located away from them, it is quite cold.
Actually, it all depends on where you are. For reference, the ISS (without a thermal control system!), being on the sunny side, would heat up to a temperature of 121°C, and would have a temperature of -157°C, being in the shadow of the Sun.
9. How much trash have we left in space?
Hmm, well, it’s not enough for us humans to litter our own planet, so we started littering beyond its borders. There are currently more than 500,000 pieces of “space debris” in Earth’s orbit that are being monitored because they could cause damage to spacecraft.
While some of this is small pieces of meteors and the like that have entered orbit, most of the "space junk" is what we (humanity) have taken up into space and not returned back to Earth.
8. Did we really send the gold record to aliens?
Yes. Or at least we sent it to a place where they could get it if they existed. The farthest man-made object in space is Voyager 1, and it was launched in 1977 along with Voyager 2.
Both automatic probes were supposed to explore the distant planets of the solar system, and Voyager 1 went into interstellar space during its mission.
Both Voyagers carry on board a golden record with greetings, music (for example, performed by Louis Armstrong, as well as some melodies performed on the Peruvian pipe - a total of 27 different works of different styles and directions), the sound of the sea and the conversation of people, as well as images.
7. Does space really look like the “cosmic pattern” we see everywhere?
Not really. At least not for the unarmed human eye, Sorry. These super-fantastic images are usually either processed in wavelengths of light not normally visible to the human eye, such as infrared or ultraviolet, or their colors are enhanced. But this does not mean at all that space is not fantastic and beautiful - it just means that literally everything is photoshopped.
6. How many space stations are there in space?
Currently there are two. International space station(ISS) and spacecraft"Tiangong-1" (Tiangong-1), which belongs to China. While there is always a crew on board the ISS, there are usually no people on board Tiangong-1. The ISS is shared by astronauts from Russia, the USA, Japan, Canada and the European Space Agency.
5. How far is the nearest star other than our Sun (which is a star) from us?
4.24 light years. It's called Proxima Centauri. The best way visualize this distance: if you reduce the size of the Sun and Proxima Centauri to the size of grapefruits, they would still be located at a distance of approximately 4023 km from each other (almost the same as from Moscow to Krasnoyarsk). In reality, the Sun is large enough that more than 1 million Earths could fit inside it.
4. Do any private companies, such as Space X, have plans to go to Mars?
Yes! In fact, Elon Musk (founder of Space X, Tesla and PayPal) in 2050-2100. wants to establish a human colony on Mars consisting of a million people. While this sounds crazy, Space X is doing amazing things, and the timeline shows it's no joke - it's a real goal.
3. Pluto has been "demoted" from a planet to a dwarf planet, so what's the difference between the two?
There is only one difference, and that is that the celestial body in question clears the space around its orbit. A planet cleanses the space around it, a dwarf planet does not.
Two other requirements that apply to planets and dwarf planets are as follows: 1) the planet in question is in orbit around a star and is not itself a satellite; 2) has enough mass to be round.
2. Since Pluto is now a dwarf planet, are there other dwarf planets in our solar system?
Yes, there are only 5 dwarf planets in our solar system: Ceres, Pluto, Eris, Makemake and Haumea.
Pluto isn't even the largest of them. The largest dwarf planet in our solar system is Eris. It is almost 27% larger than Pluto. Bonus fact: Eris is the goddess of discord in Greek mythology.
1. Is it possible for aliens to invade Earth?
Yes! Could this happen? Not really. And there are several reasons for this: HUGE distances between stars and galaxies in space. (Most of us cannot truly understand this.)
In addition, we have many of humanity's terrible problems. Why would a significantly advanced civilization spend years and resources coming to us?

Teacher:
Guys! Today we will play the space quiz “Space Experts”.
Since ancient times, the starry sky has attracted people's attention; it has always attracted with its beauty and inaccessibility. Man wanted to look up and find out how the sky works.
Millennia passed before people were able to prove that the Earth is spherical. Observations of the sky led to the conclusion that it revolves around the Sun, making one revolution per year. Then people built airplanes, took to the sky and, looking from a great height, were able to once again become convinced that the Earth is a huge ball.
On April 12, 1961, a citizen of our country, military pilot Yuri Gagarin, made the first space flight, which lasted only 108 minutes. His ship made one revolution around the Earth and landed safely in a given area.
And Valentina Tereshkova is the first woman in the world to conquer outer space,
50 years ago she flew into space. She always dreamed about the sky, about the stars, about space, and she has not forgotten how to dream today - she would like to visit Mars.
Valentina Tereshkova was 26 years old when fame came to her, the world's first female cosmonaut, which no other woman on the planet had known. Valentina Tereshkova is a star who conquered the sky.
All his free time V.V. Tereshkova devoted herself to parachuting, which was at the peak of popularity among Soviet youth in those years. Classes at the flying club taught the girl to be strong and courageous, to be able to control herself in any situation. extreme situation. In the early 60s. In the 20th century, after Yuri Gagarin’s legendary space flight, hundreds of thousands of young people dreamed of repeating his feat. Valentina Vladimirovna Tereshkova was no exception. She writes a letter to Star City with a request to enroll in the women's space squad, to which she was accepted after a severe selection on March 12, 1962.
1.Sons and daughters of the blue planet Bashmakova S.
They soar up, disturbing the peace of the stars.
The path to interstellar space has been established
For satellites, rockets, scientific stations.
