If you happen to be in Moscow do not miss the chance to go to the Star City - the place where the history of space travel began, where Yuri Gagarin began his progress towards the first space flight in human history. it is like visiting the US NASA, I am not sure if it is even possible.
If you wish to visit the Star City there are private guided tours available, however you need to plan well in advance as the security clearance must be obtained. not cheap but really worth doing, better to use professional tour operators as would be difficult if not impossible to arrange on your own. you may try Go Russia, very efficient and friendly staff, http://www.justgorussia.co.uk/en/excursion_star_city.html |
