Ingush in space exploration
Space exploration dates back to ancient times, when humans were just learning to count the stars and identify constellations. It was only four hundred years ago, after the invention of the telescope, that astronomy began to develop rapidly, bringing ever-new discoveries to science.
The 17th century was a transitional age for astronomy, when the scientific method began to be applied to space exploration, leading to the discovery of the Milky Way, other star clusters, and nebulae.
Space exploration reached its peak in the mid-20th century. The major breakthroughs in scientific and technological progress in the 20th century were the launch of the first satellite into space, the first human spaceflight, the spacewalk, and the lunar landing...
Representatives of the small Ingush people also left their mark on space exploration – Alikhan Kulbuzhev and Umalat Marziev.
