In
a hostile natural environment environment, and over 400 km away from
the original ‘Baikonur’ in a place first called Tyuratam, Baikonur
Cosmodrome has a special place in space travel history. It has been the
launch site of hundreds of missions off our planet, from Sputnik, Laika
and Gagarin and to Tim Peake.
As Tim Peake set sail for the ISS,
2003 Christmas Lecturer Monica Grady was there to watch the launch. We
take a look at the history of the enigmatic town that is the home of
space travel.
‘A Place Called Space’ is the 2015 Royal
Institution advent calendar. Every day in the run up to Christmas we'll
be releasing an original piece of content exploring the human experience
and cultural significance of space travel. With hand-drawn animations,
experiments in zero gravity, interviews with astronauts and creative
data visualisations, the calendar will fire you into space every
morning.
'A Place Called Space' channels the voices of seasoned
astronauts and expert scientists through the eyes of a team of talented
animators, film-makers and artists, bringing you a thought-provoking gem
to kick-start each day.
