The cosmic monster That Terrified Humanity. The vega mission story.

Описание: What happens when a mysterious object that appears only once every 75 years captures the attention of the entire world?
In 1984, Soviet scientists launched one of the most ambitious space missions in history. Their goal was not only to study Venus but also to intercept Halley’s Comet, a celestial object that has fascinated and frightened humanity for centuries.
Using the gravity of Venus, the Vega spacecraft traveled across the solar system and became the first mission to closely observe Halley’s Comet. What they discovered inside the comet’s dust shocked scientists and raised new questions about the origins of life Earth.
This is the forgotten story of Vega 1 and Vega 2—one of the greatest achievements of the Soviet space program.
