The interior with the rocket. The rocket is a model of a spaceship, the space machine, which refers to the initial sketches of Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, a scientist who developed the theory of space flights and design for a manned spacecraft.
The model is located in Tsiolkovsky State Museum of the History of Cosmonautics in Kaluga. In the foreground we can see a table with a meteorite. In the background - a red fragment of a spacecraft from the Museum of Cosmonautics in Moscow and a cubic part of the accelerator unit. This work creates a strong composition play between the black hole and green area where a space asteroid is painted.
