Cosmonauts in Space

Fantastic exhibition in the Science Museum visited last Friday. On display, the Vostok return capsule which brought back the first woman in space, Tereshkova (standing alongside).





The battered and scorched Russian Soyuz return capsule now the only means of transport to and from the International Space Station, Major Tim Peake will be transported back to Earth in one like this!
Russian lunar landing craft (engineering model), never launched as American lunar module got there first!
