24 апреля Китай отмечает свой День космонавтики, и в этом году он проходит под знаком 70-летия национальной космической программы. Но пока отложим в сторону глянцевые отчёты о новых запусках, белых ракетах и сотнях спутников. Вместо этого заглянем туда, где тишина не любит пресс-релизов. Туда, где в определённом смысле решается судьба каждого космического аппарата, но что, оставаясь в тени, не часто попадает в заголовки СМИ. Читать далее Read more
