Konstantin Tsiolkovskys rocket model
Konstantin Tsiolkovskys planned rocket ship. Although he never built a rocket, Tsiolkovsky (1857-1935) was highly influential in the development of Soviet rocket and space technology. This is a model of one of his planned rockets. He determined that the Earths escape velocity was 8 kilometres per second and showed that this could be achieved using liquid-fuel rockets. He predicted many aspects of space travel, including double-walled hulls for meteor protection and the problems of weightlessness. Photographed in the Tsiolkovsky Kaluga State Museum of the History of Cosmonautics, Russia

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Konstantin Tsiolkovsky's rocket model, a testament to his immense influence on Soviet rocket and space technology development. Although he never had the opportunity to build an actual rocket, Tsiolkovsky's visionary ideas paved the way for future advancements in this field. The model represents one of his planned rockets, designed with meticulous attention to detail. Tsiolkovsky's groundbreaking calculations determined that Earth's escape velocity was 8 kilometers per second, a crucial milestone in understanding space travel possibilities. He further explored concepts such as using liquid-fuel rockets to achieve this velocity and addressed challenges like meteor protection through double-walled hulls. Additionally, he delved into the complexities of weightlessness long before it became a reality for astronauts. Photographed within the hallowed halls of the Tsiolkovsky Kaluga State Museum of the History of Cosmonautics in Russia, this image captures not only a physical representation but also echoes the rich history behind it. It symbolizes an era when scientific pioneers like Tsiolkovsky pushed boundaries and expanded our knowledge of physics and space exploration. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from the early 20th century, we are reminded of Tsiolkovsky's lasting legacy as a rocket pioneer whose designs laid foundations for future generations' achievements in space science. This photograph serves as a tribute to his brilliance and enduring contribution to humanity's quest for knowledge beyond our planet’s confines.
