This book belongs to the not-so-ordinary genre of memoir literature, since it was written by two authors, spouses who lived together for more than sixty years, veterans of the Baikonur Cosmodrome, test engineers, indigenous Leningraders who survived the repressions of relatives in the thirties, and the war, and the blockade of the native cities.
The book tells about the formation of the Baikonur cosmodrome, talks about the life and work of people in difficult climatic and domestic conditions. People who took part in the tests of our first intercontinental ballistic missile and in the events of the beginning of a breakthrough of a person into space, events that became epoch -making.
The book provides little-known facts from the history of the development of domestic missile and space technology.
In some cases, the authors are forced to resort to technical details for a more complete assessment of the described events.
Memories are written without pathos, in a simple language and are designed for readers interested in the history of the development of domestic missile and space technology
