The Competition Mission

The progress of mankind is closely linked to space exploration.

The 55th anniversary of the first space flight is rapidly approaching. More than 550 people of Earth have repeated the space route made by Yuri Gagarin. Many of them have been trained in the Research & Test Cosmonaut Training Center named after Yuri Gagarin, which celebrated its 55th anniversary in early spring of 2015.

150 years ago on March, 18 there was the first man spacewalk made by Alexey A. Leonov.

July, 17 1975 there was the first orbital docking of USSR «SOYUZ» and US «Apollo’ spaceships which was called «a space handshake». Since that time it has become obvious the international cooperation in space can open new horizons to humankind progress and life preservation on the Earth.

The deeper our exploration of the Universe will be, the clearer our understanding of our planet’ s uniqueness and fragility will become.

Nowadays despite all the scientific and technological achievements there is no absolute proof of life outside the Earth, there are only suggestions of various degree of certainty.

We consider out planet as a huge and a common place simultaneously, while on a space scale it is tiny in size, unique and exceptional in respect of living conditions on it in comparison to other stellar bodies of the Universe.

If more human nations threat out planet as a miracle and take more care of it and of other nations, they will be able to protect life together and do more good to our civilization.
