Conquest of the Universe

Thousands of years ago, our distant ancestors gazed at the Moon and stars while sitting by the fire. They dreamed of how humans could one day rise up - higher than mountains and clouds. Thus, myths and legends were born:... about a hero flying like a bird, about the "fiery arrows" he shot into the sky, about flying carpets and mythical creatures transporting to the Sun, Moon, and stars. Many of these myths have become reality today.
What awaits us in the future? Space elevators, soaring from the surface of the planet to orbital stations, floating cities in the sky, hotels and resorts in open space, the exploration of asteroids and other planets, terraforming other worlds... you will read about all this in our book. Its author, the outstanding historian of cosmonautics and science popularizer Anton Pervushin, will tell you engagingly and accessibly about what was considered science fiction yesterday and may become reality tomorrow. It's time to conquer the Universe!
