Visualization of the cruise ship TMK- Mavr over Venus

TMK (Russian: Тяжёлый Межпланетный Корабль - Heavy Interplanetary Spacecraft) - Soviet ship design and mission to send manned Mars and Venus (TMK-MAVR)

The TMK-1 was set to set off in 1971 on a three-year expedition that flew around Mars and dropped the probe. Besides this idea was proposed extended projects such as TMK-E, MAVR and KK in which to fly over Venus, to be used electric drive or manned landing on Mars.

The TMK project was a Soviet response to the American program Apollo. The project has never been completed due to the technical difficulties of the N1 rocket that was necessary for this project.

TMK-1

The first flight to Mars was to begin on June 8, 1971.

The 75-ton TMK-1 ship was to take three crew members aboard. After ten and a half months of flight, the crew would make a flight over Mars and release a remotely-controlled spacecraft to Mars, before returning to Earth. Arrival was scheduled to take place on July 10, 1974 after three years, a month and two days of travel. TMK-E

This version was created in 1960. It was a manned landing on the surface of Mars, and the spacecraft would have been constructed in the orbit of Earth. The space ship was to be driven by an atomic reactor.

TMK-E was to perform its mission in three years. The ship was supposed to have a length of 175 meters and accommodate six crew members. It contained six landers, two for the crew and four for the so-called. Mars mission. Mavr (MArs - VeneRa)

Another version of TMK. This mission, in addition to the flight over Mars, included a flight over Venus on the way back. The project was named "Mavr" (MArs - VeneRa), meaning Mars and Venus. Three cosmonauts were to take part in this mission. KK

In 1966, the final version of the vessel was built within TMK. The ship's propulsion was to be atomic. The mission itself was supposed to last 630 days. The mission was planned for 1980. The crew was to be three. The stay on Mars was to last 30 days. Bibliography

Curriculum vitae In the Dominican history, when the dictatorial president Rafael Leónidas Trujillo was in power, Roman was his niece's husband and "third person in the state" (Trujillo and SIM Arturo Espaillata). He was the Minister of Armed Forces, a close associate of Trujillo, which did not prevent him from accepting Trujillo's murder in 1961 from the American consul in the Dominican Republic, Henry Dearborn. He led to the murder of Rafael Trujillo on May 30, 1961, but he could not use this to overthrow his followers. He failed to arrest them along with Trujillo's sons such as Ramfis. Ultimately, the conspiracy ended with the conspirators' defeat when Zacarias - chauffeur Trujillo - survived the presidential bombardment and handed over the drafts of the bombers and Arturo Espaillat informed Roman about the death of the commander - at the sight of Arturo Espaillata Roman revealed ...

Myrmex Indikos, pol. Indian ant - an alleged species of gigantic ants (according to Herodot's description, larger than foxes, but smaller than dogs). The earliest mention of these creatures is dated to the fifth century BC, and its author is Herodotus. According to her, these ants inhabited the deserts of Persia and India and extracted gold from their sands. Several such creatures were kept in the residence of the King of Persia. Gold was to be obtained by caravans made up of several camels in the heat of the day, when the ants were protected underground. You had to do it quickly, because the ants sensed the smell of people and went on the pursuit, and they were deadly dangerous. This story is confirmed by the next accounts: Nearchos, one of the army officers of Alexander Macedoński, and Megastenes - a historian and traveler. The fragment of the Megasthenes (IV-III century BC) preserved in fragments can be seen in the underground mines at the foot of the mountains on the easte...

Names of streets and squares

The names of the streets and squares were originally of a topographical nature, that is, they informed about: Researchers propose two names for these toponyms - urban or plateonimy. S. Urbańczyk points out that the older names were spontaneously formed and sprouted in the daily lives of the inhabitants of the place. The information contained herein was related to the characteristics of the place (eg appearance), important road directions (geographic orientation) or values, functions and economic meanings called places / objects in the settlement for the inhabitants' lives. Former names are protected by law, but are often not respected by managers of the municipality, county or province. Currently the names of streets and squares are given by the commune authorities, county governors or voivodships. There is a tendency to use commemorative names, ie to commemorate deserving people and important events (eg Zygmunt August Street, 3. Maja Street). The names of the districts are ...
