The program includes Soyuz spaceship simulators hall where you will learn a lot about the creation of Soyuz spaceships and its technical features, about Sokol spacesuit, space food and cosmonauts spaceflight preparation programs. During this excursion you will see the world biggest and unique Centrifuge TsF-18. This outstanding facility is used for simulating g- loads during all the stages of space flight in cosmonauts trainings and for cosmonauts selection. You will be surely impressed by scale of Hydrolaboratory which is used for extravehicular activities trainings in specialized spacesuit Orlan under simulated weightlessness condition.
Then on the training with spacesuits Sokol youll learn the system of SOKOL KV-2 lightweight spacesuit with flexible unremovable helmet. The suit weighs around 10 kg. Its purpose is to keep the wearer alive in case of an accidental depressurization of the spacecraft during the most dangerous periods of flight: launch, docking and landing.
