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.

Bring a piece of history into your home or office with our Media Storehouse Poster Prints featuring the iconic rocket model designed by the father of astronautics, Konstantin Tsiolkovsky. This captivating image, sourced from Science Photo Library, showcases Tsiolkovsky's visionary design that paved the way for modern rocket technology and space exploration. Immerse yourself in the rich history of space travel and inspire your imagination with this stunning, high-quality poster print.
A2 Poster (59.4 x 42cm, 23.4" x 16.5" inches) printed on 170gsm Satin Poster Paper. Securely packaged, rolled and inserted into a strong mailing tube and shipped tracked. Poster Prints are of comparable archival quality to our Photographic prints, they are simply printed on thinner Poster Paper. Whilst we only use Photographic Prints in our frames, you can frame Poster Prints if they are carefully supported to prevent sagging over time.
Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years. Our Archival Quality Photo Prints and Fine Art Paper Prints are printed on higher quality paper and the choice of which largely depends on your budget.

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.
