Sergei Korolev was a key figure in the history of space exploration, known as the father of the Soviet space program. His early passion for aviation and engineering led him to study aeronautical engineering at the Kiev Polytechnic Institute, but his path to space exploration was not straightforward. During the Stalinist era, Korolev was arrested and sentenced to forced labor, where he worked in harsh conditions. Despite these setbacks, his brilliance in engineering eventually earned him a position leading the Soviet space program. Under Korolev’s leadership, the Soviet Union made remarkable strides in space technology, achieving several significant milestones during the Space Race with the United States.
