Cosmonautics Day

This poster is not about space. It's about the inner urge to move, even when all around is only drowsiness and dust.

The LiAZ-677 bus, turned into a rocket, is not a parody of flight but an image of an attempt — the very one made in silence.

The Moon here is not the final goal but an important point that turned out to be in the wrong place. Shifted from the 'correct' composition, it reminds us: the attainable can be inconvenient, ill-timed, off-trajectory. But that can't cancel the aspiration.

This 'rocket' flies not because it can, but because it can't do otherwise.
