К. Е. Tsiolkovsky was born in 1857 in a little town in the province of Ryazan.

At the age of ten, he fell seriously ill and became almost deaf. He could not go to school and continued to study at home, he was a boy of 14, he constructed a lot of different balloons.

At the age of 16 Tsiolkovsky was sent by his father to Moscow to study. He studied hard and three years later he came back home and earned his living by teaching mathematics at school.

Tsiolkovsky made a great contribution to the theory of rocket flight. His works helped scientists to launch sputniks and space rockets into outer space.

It's a pity that K. E. Tsiolkovsky could not see Soviet sputniks, rockets and spaceships, he died on the 19th of September in 1935.

K. Tsiolkovsky was the first man who fully understood the possibilities of rockets. People sometimes ask why Tsioikovsky and not Jules Verne, who wrote of manned flight to the moon long before Tsiolkovsky? The reason is that the French writer's fantasy was the imagination of an artist. Tsiolkovsky was the first man to give scientific basis to the exciting stories of space flight. He gave cosmonautics its present form and became its founder. Tsiolkovsky's rocket, not Jules Verne's cannon opened the road into outer space.
