“Mankind is drawn to the heavens for the same reason we were once drawn into unknown lands and across the open sea. We choose to explore space because doing so improves our lives, and lifts our national spirit. So let us continue the journey.”
– George W. Bush


What is space? Cosmos is primarily the space around us, it is an infinite number of planets, galaxies, stars. Cosmos is of course an infinite space that is everywhere. We are also cosmos.

For me the space is a whole world. The human desire to fly into space is abstract. In the conditions we are accustomed to on Earth, we can only imagine in fantasies the feeling of weightlessness that awaits each of us when entering orbit around our planet or during a short suborbital jump.
The dream of space flight, which originated in ancient times, became a reality about 55 years ago. Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin became the first person to fly in orbit around the Earth.
Now we know that having risen above the dense layers of the atmosphere and seeing the stellar blackness of space, a person will not go crazy, as doctors feared. And you can live using compensation means in zero gravity

The first cosmonauts wanted to fly further, higher, faster. And they succeeded. The pilots, when they were selected as candidates for astronauts, were only told that they would fly "on new technology." They learned about the space purpose of their future aircraft only when they started studies and training. Of course, each of them wanted to be the first, but they must prove their professionalism, and they prepared, prepared ...

All your family and friends will be proud of you.
You will be able to brag to everyone about your rare profession.
Your name will be known in all countries of the world.
Every flight you fly will be covered in the news.
You will be able to somersault in zero gravity and even fly to Mars !!!
You will see the Earth from space and make sure that it is round. Rather, spherical.
You can make some important discoveries.

I want to fly into space, including to tell people about the preparation for the flight, about the sensations that I will experience at all stages. This is relevant now, with the approach of a new era of astronautics. When, first, suborbital and then orbital flights will become available to private companies and people.
