“The cosmic philosophy”
Konstantin Eduardovich Tsiolkovsky is known all over the world as one of the founding fathers of astronautics who developed the theory of airship and rocketry. These works are well-known all over the world.
But there is a great part of Tsiolkovsky‘s heritage which few people know about. Using scientific methods, the scientist worked out a doctrine regarding the Universe and the place of the Humankind in it.
More than 250 works in Russian can be found in the section “Научное наследие” (“Scientific Heritage”) of this website. Some of the articles are published in Russian for the first time, as the Project team recognized and translated them into text format from digitized archival images of previously never published manuscripts and typewriters authored by Konstantin Tsiolkovsky.
Unfortunately, extremely few philosophical works by Konstantin Tsiolkovsky have been translated into English.
The main goal of the Project is to make the philosophical works of the great scientist and visionary Konstantin Tsiolkovsky publicly available, free of charge for a wide range of readers with the possibility to read them on any type of computers and mobile devices. This is an attempt to break the “conspiracy of silence” around the philosophy of the great space visionary and give it a “second life”.
The participants of the Project believe that the results of research and the fruits of the great scientist’s thoughts should be available to everyone absolutely free of charge.
All the works of the great visionary are in the form of e-books in PDF format, which allows readers to study them from any computer or mobile device.
You can help us re-energize these priceless works. Share information about them with your friends, spread information about the project in the Internet.
