Aleksandr Markov

Science fiction/documentary film about man's voyages to the moon.

Soviet cosmonauts land on the planet Venus and find it teeming with life, some of it dangerous.

This film consists of three parts. The first dramatizes the life of the founder of Soviet astronautics, Konstantin Tsiolkovsky; the second describes the development of rocket technology; and the third visualizes the future with enactments of the first manned spaceflight, spacewalk, space station construction and humans on the moon.
