Belarusian astronauts biography
And the sheathing of spacecraft is still created on the basis of technologies developed by scientists of the Belarusian Institute of Heat and Mass Training. A fragment of the panorama of the lunar landscape, transmitted by the Soviet automatic station "Luna" G. Director of the Institute B. Stepanov and its students V. Mostovnikov and A. Rubinov G. Photos from free sources in April of the year, not only Soviet citizens, but also Americans who listened to the broadcast from the first seconds followed the first flight of the year.
The famous "went! When the ship overcame the attraction of the earth, the Americans suddenly heard Gagarin’s mischievous voice:" Kosberg worked! The first of the Belarusians in orbit in the year was the cosmonaut pilot twice Hero of the Soviet Union Peter Klimuk. The duration of its three flights is more than 78 days.
Three flights on the account of another Belarusian in space and also twice Hero of the Soviet Union Vladimir Kovalenk. He made them in, and years, having spent a total of a day in space. Preparation of the quantum generator for work G. His research and fuel development for spacecraft made possible flights into space of American Apollo and Shattlov, including the moon.
Pyotr Klimuk’s sister and fellow countrymen recalled his first flight into space, “when he flew, they did not learn from him - they reported on the radio.” Belarusian scientists and engineers participated in the creation of many technical innovations, without which cosmic flights would be simply unthinkable. At the Academy of Sciences, the Institute of Physics made devices.
And they still release optics for the International Space Station. A design bureau of system programming was created in Gomel. In Novopolotsk, the meter plant produced a lot of computer equipment. Our Integral worked on the space, “Peleng” made optics. The collapse of the Soviet Union gave rise to the economic crisis. As Belarusian enterprises suddenly turned out to be divorced from the main markets, so scientists - from the main industry centers that remained in Russia.
Nevertheless, Belarus managed not only to maintain the potential, but also to create its own national infrastructure of the space industry. By the decision of President Alexander Lukashenko, the state took under the wing the entire Academy of Sciences. She received national status, relevant functions and financing. Since the year, the Academy has coordinated space activities in Belarus, and a space research agency has been operating there from a year.
The Belarusian satellite launched from the Baikonur cosmodrome, Alexander Lukashenko announced this in the year, while visiting the Energia missile and space corporation. And already in July, Alexander Lukashenko got acquainted with the creation of the Belarusian space system of remote sensing of the Earth and visited the assembly place of the Belarusian spacecraft "Squirrel" at Energia Corporation.
The head of state admitted that for a long time he had a decision to create a Belarusian satellite. He wanted not just to save a scientific school, but to raise it to another step. The launch on the Baikonur cosmodrome in the year ended in failure due to the malfunction of the rocket, which had opened after the start. As a result, the Belarusian squirrel, along with almost two dozen satellites, did not reach the cosmos.
But the experience in creating satellites Belarusian engineers gained a tremendous one. And after a few years they achieved their goals. And the Poreng enterprise developed an optical-electronic telescopic complex for the satellite, so the weight of the device was reduced to kg. For comparison: Russian samples similar in functionality at that time weighed about 6.5 tons.
He was brought to orbit by a Chinese missile carrier and became a key element of the national satellite communication and broadcasting system. The ground -based control complex "Belintersat" is located in the village of Stankovo Dzerzhinsky district. And finally, the third satellite is the same BKA, the remote probation apparatus. Today he acts in a grouping with Russian “canopies”.
