In March 2019, I visited Russia to get acquainted with Moscow and attend the launch of the spacecraft at Baikonur. Baikonur is far from Moscow, first three hours by plane, then three hours by bus. I was convinced that Russia is a huge country. It was an unforgettable trip! I captured the opportunity to get acquainted with the launch sites of the Baikonur cosmodrome. The city struck by its simplicity and austerity, it is really a city of people who provide the development of the space program of Russia. It was very exciting to get acquainted with the history of the cosmodrome, which is carefully stored here. Was struck by the enthusiasm of the Museum staff. The hospitality of the Russian people was felt in everything: in the hotel, in the restaurant, at the sites where tourists are allowed. The rocket rose into the sky rapidly, it lasted only a few seconds, but it was an exciting extraordinary sight ... a Pleasant addition to the program of the trip was a visit to the local Kazakh object, a very unusual national color of Asia, there were memories and very pleasant impressions from the visit. 
Thank you to the staff of the "Country of Space Tourism" who accompanied us and made this trip comfortable.
