Description: maxuta_id="012064" RUSSIAN MINISTRY OF DEFENSE CENTRAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE #50: HISTORY ESSAYS BOOK AT THE FOREFRONT. Essays on the history of Central Research Institute #50 of Russian Ministry of Defense named after Tikhonravov. The book provides a historical overview of the entire life cycle of the Central Research Institute #50: from inception to disbandment. The book contains five main chapters written by successive heads of the institute. Three chapters, authored by Mescheryakov, are devoted to describing the origins of military space activities, the formation of military space science, and the birth of the Central Research Institute #50, which took place in very difficult conditions. Alekseev, who replaced Meshcheryakov as head of the 50th Central Research Institute, in the chapter he wrote, places the main emphasis on the further development of military space as an independent theater of military operations, showing the difficult search for ways to resolve interdepartmental contradictions. The theme of the struggle for the future of military space science continues in the chapter, authored by the head of the Central Research Institute #50, Menshikov. Throughout all the chapters, a clear thread runs through the idea that the main asset of the institute was its employees, whose talent and hard work laid the foundations for our achievements in space activities. The authors of the book took the liberty of objectively assessing, as objectively as possible, the reformatory transformations of the last decade of the last century, which became a landmark in the development of the country’s space industry. History does not have a subjunctive mood, and therefore rewriting the facts of the recent past is an unseemly matter. But it is always useful to analyze and comprehend what, over the years, becomes the property of time. Such work will undoubtedly help future generations to overcome the underwater reefs of pseudo-scientific disputes and avoid systemic errors. The content of the book includes the origins and birth of the Central Research Institute #50, its major milestones, centralization of military research for space as the new theater of military operations, the fate of military space research after reforms in Russia.
