The need for parachute training became clear from the very beginning of the space age.

The first Russian space explorers returned from a parachute flight, ejecting at an altitude of 7 kilometers.

Today, the ability to control a parachute for astronauts is still not only a mandatory subject of training, but also a psychological test for the correctness of decision-making in extreme conditions.

When there are several people in the sky, it is already a crew that must safely do the job.

Elements of group acrobatics are mandatory for astronauts, approaching a person in the sky is almost like docking spacecraft.

The plot starred parachutist instructor Sergey Maksimov, Honored Coach of Russia Denis Dodonov, pilot-cosmonaut Valery Korzun, psychologist of the Gagarin Central Research Center Irina Solovyova, parachutist Andrey Sergeev, masters of sports of international class Sergey Zinchenko and Alexey Burenin.
