Anya was thrilled to be flying on a plane, her eyes wide with wonder as she looked out the window at the clouds passing by. Andrei, on the other hand, seemed more content to curl up with a book and read.
As the hours passed, Alexander and his children chatted about their plans for the trip. He teased them about the rocket launch they would be witnessing at Baikonur Cosmodrome sometime in the future, and how it was one of the largest and most important space launch facilities in the world.
Anya was fascinated by the idea of space travel, and Alexander promised her that they would take a tour of the facility and see the rocket up close.
Andrei, always the curious one, asked about the science behind space travel and how the rockets were able to launch into space. Alexander explained the basics of physics and engineering, impressing his son with his knowledge.
