A seminar dedicated to the memory of Boris Smirnov was held at VGIK. Friends and colleagues called him the first space operator, although he had never been in space.

But Boris Alekseevich became, in the literal sense of the word, a chronicler of the country's space history.

At the age of 17, he got a job at the film laboratory at the aviation military base (the current CPC) and it was he who became the person who not only filmed the first detachment of future cosmonauts, but also taught them the technique of film and photography.

In the preparation of the plot, chronicle footage from different years was used, including fragments of an interview with Boris Smirnov in 2012.

The Space Council of the Russian Academy of Sciences has adopted a project called "SODA" - "A system for detecting daytime meteorites." The system will allow detecting dangerous celestial bodies flying from the Sun four hours before entering the atmosphere.

The main feature of the project is that SODA will work in space.

The director of INASAN Boris Shustov, junior researcher of the Experimental Astronomy Department of INASAN Alexey Shugarov, Head of the Strategic Planning Department of Roscosmos Yuri Makarov starred in the plot.

The Soyuz MS-02 spacecraft successfully docked to the ISS, the exact docking of the ship with the station was provided by the Kurs system, which is being created at the Research Institute of Precision Instruments in Moscow.

The TP Research Institute is working on the digital radio engineering system "Kurs-MKP", which in 2017 will replace the analog system "Kurs-P" on the ISS.

The plot starred the chief designer Sergey Medvedev, the engineer of the 2nd category of the Research Institute of TP Vitaly Gruzdev, the dean of the University "Voenmeh" Sergey Petrov.

The Cosmonaut Training Center is hosting the final stage of spacewalk training.

Cosmonaut Sergei Ryazansky has already had three such exits, however, before the next flight, he works out all possible emergency situations.

Sergey Ryazansky and his instructor Dmitry Zubov talk about the training.

The 50th anniversary expedition started from the first "Gagarin" site of Baikonur to the ISS, which completed the manned program of the "Year of Gagarin".

The crew of the Soyuz MS-03 included Oleg Novitsky, Peggy Whitson and Tom Peske.

Oleg Novitsky, Claudie Eniere and Sergey Krikalev shared their memories of how international cooperation in space was born.

The road home from space begins long before landing.

Preparation for returning to Earth is as thorough as preparation for weightlessness, you need to train in a special "Lapwing" suit, where pressure is created so that the blood flows more and more to the legs, plus load the ship with returned cargo and change the lodgements.

A search and rescue team is being prepared on the Ground at this time.

After returning, the crew of Soyuz MSS-03 Oleg Novitsky and Tom Peske are waiting for meetings with their relatives, a rehabilitation course and new experiments.

The plot for the birthday of the strategic missile forces - RVSN.

Created on December 17, 1959, the RVSN is the basis of Russia's nuclear shield.

Modern missile systems of mine and mobile basing are not only equipment, but also highly qualified specialists.

Ruslan Shirokov, a cadet of the branch of the Military Academy of the Peter the Great RVSN, Viktor Tolmachev, director of the Votkinsk Plant, Professor Yuri Solomonov, Deputy commander of the Kozel Division of the RVSN Alexey Lozhka, General Director of the Motor Design Bureau Alexey Brewho, Major General of the RVSN Alexey Konnov, tell about the missile complexes of the Topol and Yars systems.

The Soyuz MS-04 spacecraft, named Argo, successfully docked to the ISS. The crew has six months of orbital work and spacewalks ahead of them.

The plot starred Sergey Ryazansky, Daniel Burbank, NASA official Rob Navias, Sergey Krikalev.

Preflight interviews: Argo crew Fyodor Yurchikhin and Jack Fischer.

The plot for the 40th anniversary of the Intercosmos program.

In 1976, the first foreign cosmonauts arrived in Star City.

The first flight of the international crew took place already in 1978, Czechoslovak cosmonaut Vladimir Remek went to the Salyut-6 station, becoming the first European cosmonaut.

Then 14 more cosmonauts from socialist countries and even from France visited the orbit.

The Intercosmos program worked until 1988 and became a unique example of international cooperation.

It was then that joint space research began, which continued at the Soviet Mir complex and is still continuing at the International Space Station.

The plot starred Vladimir Remek and Denis Lyskov.

Natalia Burtseva's story about cosmonauts Fyodor Yurchikhin and Sergei Ryazansky going into outer space.

The astronauts worked outside the ISS for more than 7 hours, during which time they tested a new Orlan spacesuit, took samples from the outer skin of the station, launched several mini-satellites and tested a special adhesive tape to repair damaged surfaces of the station.

Interview in the MCC: Alexander Poleshchuk, Alexander Kaleri, Alexander Lazutkin, Sergey Kireevichev.
