The museum was opened recently, only in 1991. Not a baby, but still a child by museum standards. Unexpectedly, there are a lot of real exhibits that have been in space and returned from there, mostly ships and capsules. A life-size Soyuz hangs from the ceiling. Below is a moon rover. If they had not said that the model, I would not have suspected ...By the way, the wheels were made at the Kharkov bicycle factory.
Half the effect of the museum is a tour. They tell not only facts about successes and breakthroughs, but also about realities. For example, about dozens of dogs that died in space in the 60s, when the USSR was only training to launch rockets. For many of them, there was no other option, because the return during the first flights was not even expected. They talk about buried projects, in which billions thumped and then closed "because America had time before. " And about the daily difficulties of life on the ISS.
I recommend adults go first. But if you have children aged 5 and older, they will also be interested.
