About the book: 2021 / A fantastic story about how on Earth they are preparing for the first launch of a manned spacecraft - first to Jupiter, and then to the star Proxima Centauri. But actually, this is not entirely science fiction. Scientists are already saying that the future lies in thermonuclear controlled fusion, in rockets with a thermonuclear engine that will fly to the stars. And we live in the 21st century, when fantastic ideas come true!
