Baikonur tour, June 2011, report

Our company successfully carried out one more tour to cosmodrome Baikonur with observation of the launch of Soyuz TMA-02M spaceship.

Our participants had wonderful opportunity to see with their own eyes rolling out and mounting of the rocket, to take part in international press-conference of main and back-up crew and in all the main pre-flight events of cosmonauts, feeling with them the excitement of the last days on earth before the flight to spac for half a year.

Of course we didn’t forget about historical places of Baikonur town, visited with pleasure museums, memorials, International space school, and also the objects of cosmodrome itself. We successfully saw off the crew of Sergei Volkov, Satosho Furukava and Michael Fossum and were amazed by the wonderful view of the rocket launch at night.

This time we had among the participants the winners of radio Europa Plus and Retro FM games, who won their tours to Baikonur.
