Russians Beat The Hollywood In Race To Shoot In Space

The craze for sci-fi movies is impeccable. And the curiosity to learn more and discovering how the movie presents the world beyond is goosebumping.

However, all these are graphics and are not realistic. They merely give you an impression of space and how astronauts live in space.

Besides, well all know the battle happening between Virgin Airlines, Blue Origin, SpaceX for space travel. The three companies have successfully launched the space ships into outer space with non-astronaut crews among these SpaceX had an upper hand as the crew spent three whole days in outer space.

This aside if we get back to the movie’s imaginary space. You might also know that Elon Musk and Tom Cruise were planning to shoot the upcoming Mission Impossible movie in space. We all know the Tesla CEO for taking risks, his mission to settle down on mars is something he had been working on extensively from years and he has become an idol for the young generation and Tom Cruise he has his own name for performing each stunt on his own in every movie but either way, he is in tabloids for one or the other thing.

But recently, a film crew from Russia went to space together to shoot scenes related to space and astronauts. The film director and heroine left for the International Space Station (ISIS) today in a special spacecraft to shoot in space.

The film’s director Klim Shipenko and heroine Yulia Perseild went into space today for the shooting of the movie ‘The Challenge’. The Soyuz MS19 spacecraft belonging to the Russian space research organization Roscosmos went to ISS with another astronaut Anton Skoplerov.

The spacecraft dashed into the outer atmosphere at around 2.25 pm on Tuesday from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. They will stay in the space station for 12 days. They will then be brought to Earth by another Russian cosmonaut. The film crew underwent four months of special training for the shooting of the film.

Dmitry Rogozin, chief of the Russian space corporation Roscosmos, played a key role in the mission, despite the fact that movie shooting in space was heavily criticized by some in the Russian media.

If the scheduled shooting is successfully completed, Russia will be the first country to film in space. Putting back Elon Musk and Tom Cruises dream of shooting in space.

It might not take long for mankind to build a hotel in space and the next expedition will be space travel rather than hiking and mountain climbing.
