THE FIRST ON THE MOON

This a report of a special commission
of United Nations,

for researching the fall of a huge
meteorite on the mountains of Northern Chile

on March 1 938.

The material was provided by our
Kinoarchives of UN.

This was not a storm, nor wind.

Fireball flew out towards the mountains.

High and slow.

Afterwards, there was thunder.
I didn't manage to get frighten.

Then came the wind and it became scary.

I immediately called police.

But what can our police do?

When a year passed I took my wife,

and returned after two months.

You can look for your whole life here
for that sphere

and find nothing.

Mountains!

Exactly when that thing fell,

the cow of our neighbour Carl gave a birth.

Have you seen a calf with the wings?

Why does it need wings?
Is it going to fly?

History has preserved the name of
the creator of the first rocket.

1 1 th century. Chinese master
Dzen Gun Lian

has transformed fireworks
into a terrible weapon.

Year 1 320.

Giovanni di Fontaine in tractatus
"On fish, birds and beasts"

describes underwater, air and land
rocket apparats.

Battle of the Tatars on the river Riyaz.

Rocket, taken by Polish entrepreneurs

is called "God's fire" .

After their launch
battle stopped right away

for terror covered both armies.

And this is the public execution
of alchemist Johan Folk

on major square in Laipzig.

Attached to the rocket,
invented by him,

he tries in vain
until the last minute

to explain to his fellow citizens
nature of his discovery.

Russia. 1 9th century.

Combat missile "Zasyavka"

shell of Konstantinov,

submarine - rocketcarrier
of Shilder.

From a letter of Nicolai II
to his wife:

Yesterday there were tests
of a bolide of Grigoriev.

Dear Alex, these fantasies come
of hot pursuit of the Russian

to participate everywhere
with mind and hands.

To continue the work of Tsiolkovski!

Russians repeat these pioneering
experiences of K.E. Tsiolkovski:

rotate patent set to
special centrifuge.

Pionirs! For the work of
Lenin and Stalin:

Finish it!

We will repair error of nature.

Will teach a man to bear
multiple congestion.

But his skeleton is fragile.

See, it is simply ridiculous.

Replacement of the bones with metal

will allow a significant increase

the mechanical strength
of Soviet man.

This means that Soviet man
will deliver a mild shock,

ss the automobil did.

Red pilots

Of land were awarded
engineers and pilots

design of office of Tupolev.

Among the winners in high
government awards

was test-pilot
Captain Ivan Harlamov.

Comrades, hundreds of thousands
skilled workers,

millions of Soviet citizens created
this remarkable aircraft

and secure his motor.

So successes is achieved by us,

this is your success, comrades!

After the award party-dress ball
was held.

Among us, glorious heroes dance

Valerii Chkalov, Genadii Baydukov,
Ivan Harlamov

Moscow, Kinoarhiv of
Federal Office for Safety

Everything is going
how it should.

And when it is taken,
it happened.

They did it.

Ivan Sergeevich Harlamov

The first information

is from 1 930.

The pilot involved Harlamov
in the liquidation of the bands basmachi

in South Turkestan.

It's early.

We do not know when and where

Sankt-Peterburg. Museum of Zoology.
Workshop of Fatahov Kalif.

We were 30-40,
men and women

Healthy, rosy . . .

There was a buxom.

I like her.

The selection was very strict.

This is not even mine
first stage of selection.

All were military personnel, athletes . . .

All Communists - beautiful.

Nobody knew
where we were sent.

I thought I know --
intelligence.

That's me!
The band is maintained.

Do I look alike?
- I don't know, a little.

Well, then I was younger.

Excellent in battle
and political training,

elder Hanif Fatahov
of the Black Sea fleet

is ready for unparalleled record:

to swim from Leningrad to Kronshtadt
in ice water.

Nobody in the history of mankind

has not reached such

Of those not remembered by anyone

Mishka Roshchin!

Circus-man.

When designers
working on the housing frame,

he became the first challenger.

Man-bullet.

Ulyanovskaya. Circus of lilliputians.

Tell me something else
about Michail Roshchin.

Wrote poetry. Pretty.
- Remember someone.

I can remember only one verse.

I welcome you, great era!

Nothing more.

I was a kid, you know.

Harlamich. My good friend.

He was wounded in the arm.

But he took it.
He was incredibly strong.

Once a polygon couldn't catch
to mount and get it!

Fyodor Fyodorovich Suprun.

General constructor.

Only he knew from the Commission
for what purpose is the selection.

Of course, you do not know
what a great man

sits in the committee.

It was clear
it is the chief.

But it is not a doctor.

Only when all left but four,
he introduced himself.

Suprun was born at the end
of 1 9th century in Tula.

He became the youngest engineer
in the Department of ballistics.

Already during the third course
they appointed him to work.

Graduated in 1 914.

Then - war, Mazurskite
marshes, wounds . . .

Never returned to the institute,
worked in Tulskaya arms factory.

Right there a plan for the first
space rocket was made.

It was higher than Spassky Tower
of the Kremlin.

Maybe even wider.

Then I remembered

the Egyptian pyramids.

A good mechanism.

Suprin took drawings of his rocket
to Kremlin in 1 928.

During 5 years on the secret project
1 .5 million people were working on it.

Blacksmith Vladimir Pimenov
I will set a record!

The first change is made
with 79 bushes.

Blacksmith Pimenov
continues to work.

Second shift - 161 bushes!

Pimenov remains
in the press!

Mechanical presses doesn't hold.

Blacksmith Pimenov says:

There must be another shift!

233 bushes!

New record!

In 30 years?
Impossible!

This is a mystification.

Americans would come to solution

in only 20 years.

But it is very elegant.

Housing frame,
module landing,

Interesting, will it fly
or not?

Stand tests
Engine SU-2

Nothing can be done.

It is ready, Comrade
heads of staff.

How long does 101 work?

10 seconds.

Then the bottom is torn.

One. Two. Three. Four.

Five . . . seven, eight . . .

nine, ten, eleven
twelve . . .

Thirteen, fourteen . . .

I congratulate you!
Victory.

Training of our riding
buses with a black " perdentsa''.

were classified.

" Unit kosmolettsi"

1 2 hours a day - training,
congestion, work

It was severe.

Nice!

Height zero.

Measure the pulse.

Starting climb.

Height 3000 meters.

Put your oxygen masks.

Height 8000 meters.

Begin descent.

The descent is complete.

Land! Measure the pulse.

The first space suit was 3 times
heavier than a diving suit.

Even Harlamov
barely walked.

We put our space suites

and we could stand the climb.

Here's how fired.

Quickly. And inaccurate.

Harlamich as always
accurate.

Mischa hit papa . . .

But what the Germans
do there?

I don't understand.

Supersecret project
and suddenly - a German.

I don't understand even today.

Maybe in exchange?

Our seasonal graphics
of Professor Meyer.

Add something in the water
to cool to minus 5.

I even skipped
below the current.

Rushchin joked that it
leaked for 3 days. .

NKVD, wine production
"Kagor" No. 9

Comrade director of polygon,
Object E is ready for the launch.

It's alive!
- Yes, I wrote that.

We're trained seriously.

Gulf route, clear sea, the sea of nectar

A tale. . .

Ah! Here's another astronaut.

Duska!

Probably all of heaven
are young, as a bar . . .

Duska!

Likely to stay alive
was under 1%,

but don't be afraid.

Objectives boil inside.

Do bushes in 1 :38 scale.

In such rocket, there are 1 20.

After 1 5 minutes they are ready.

Hey, this is nuts!

Misha, Misha. . .

The film "Space Trip" . Wow!

Fantastic film "Space Trip'',

by Vasiliy Zhurvlov

out on the screen in 1 935.

They lived for the idea
of planetary revolution

people yearn for Soviet Space republics.

Scientific consultant for this film
is our very Tsiolkovski.

Comrades, complete trial
of space trip is over!

The road to space is open!

Show your documents, please!

I have a meeting.
- Yes. . .

Here, look - do not lie.

What a meeting, you
violate the statute.

You what?!

Guys, do not.

29th of August, 1 937.

On this day, Ivan Harlamov, by decision
of Government Committee,

was appointed as a pilot

for the first spaceship
of the USSR.

Stop the train!

In "Varvarka'', "Varvarka''
was walking this night...

Hi all!

. . .but squads of cops. . .

Here is more fun!

arrested hooligans,
pulled out handcuffs,

arrested hooligans,
pulled out handcuffs. . .

" I 'm pissing myself" - he cries

and grabs me by the sleeve,

I decided to help him,

how stupid I was then.

On "Varvarka'', On "Varvarka'',

just three days before the summer

I was killed by the cop

with the handle of the gun.

It's colder then,
of course . . .

. . .oh, how I love him.

To the bottom?
- To the bottom.

I 'm scared.

Aye.

Yes, I shall report
every hour

watching what's going on.

Good luck.

Successful return.

Gentlemen, go to the entering
line, please!

First level
Main level

25 kilometers south of Nyazepetrovsk.
Site of the former spaceport.

Come here!

Come here.

We found a concrete bunker.

Everything started from the start.

They cut out part of
skin of the rocket.

I took a look at Suprun,
it was red, evil . . .

After two minutes
I gathered myself.

Silence!

Nothing happened.

Then I said:

I will not live much longer.

What about Haralamov?

Nothing.

Did he say anything before the launch?
- No! He didn't say anything.

What happened next?

The largest telescope
was in the Crimea.

Suprun flew to Crimea,
to look for the missile.

I asked him to take me.

Suprun didn't find his missile.

Rocket disappeared.

Everything already happened.

The huge experiment didn't
serve anyone.

Mankind doesn't lear from
its mistakes.

They are slightly excited
for themselves.

There is no technical
nor moral progress.

Every effort. . .

is either useless
or harmful.

Monitored subject:
Fyodor Suprun.

Uncle, come . . .

Right there, below.

Uncle, where are you going?

Six days after the launch,
despite the heavy observation

Suprun disappears too.

Hi!

You ask weird questions,
comrade director.

Besides camre, I didn't have
any other weapons in my hand.

Without weapons nothing happens.

No...My memory is good.

Great!

But I remember nothing.

Vladimir Ivanovich, but you have
seen it all, you shot everything.

Your name is written on
every third box.

I understand - secrecy,
Rocket is falling apart,

constructor is running away,

all of it is considered a
defeat.

But as time has passed...

Excuse me,

my right boot is untied.

Would you tie it up?

What did you do in Crimea?

I got ill from dysentery.

I was in one hospital,
then in another...

A good woman,
Masha Mikelovich,

took me to her place.

I stayed with her until the war.

I realized that it is dangerous
to go back.

Hanif Ivanovic, I did't mean
to show you these images,

but you must show them.

The spider has eight eyes,

while a cricket has fawcet eyes.

Hanif Fatahov Ivanovic,
the last cosmonaut,

died in his workshop
while shooting this film.

The project was terminated,
people disappear.

Now it seems that they
are ahead of their time.

But there was a rocket!

In March 1 938

news about the fall
of a fireball in Chile

was in all papers.

" Passengers in liner "Fortuna''
Saw a fireball in the sky"

"The sun fell over Chile"

"Meteorite? Comet? Marsians?"

"Chilean globe.
The gods returned to Chile"

"Commission of the League of Nations
found no traces of the globe"

Chita. District
Psychiatric Hospital

As I wrote you.

I read about the find in Chile
and I wrote you.

"T he secret of the Chilean
globe revealed"

The shepherd located debris of a
foreign aircraft in the mountains.

Chile. 200 kilometers north of the
town Olyagua.

The area where "Chilean globe''
fell.

Chilean globe fell on
March 24, 1 938.

Suprun's rocket took off a week
Before - March 16.

Our production crew
went to Chile.

But they were late.

Someone already took the debris
of the Chliean globe.

But not all.

Pastor Sergio Arihas sold
us for $1 20

Chilean globe debris.

This was a part of the management board
for the first Soviet rocket.

August 1 939.
River Halhin-Gaulle, Mongolia.

Soviet-Mongolian army
gathered in First Army Group,

started the offensive
before the enemy.

Japanese militarists lost
370 aircrafts

and 48 thousand were killed,
wounded or captured.

In the archives of the Ministry
of Defense

I found a record of the interrogation
of the captured Japanese officer

Hisaki Ito.

He spoke about a strange man
He met in the steppes,

coming out of a sphere (surroundings ).

Ivan Harlamov was located in Mongolia,
in the area of hostilities,

year and a half
after the launch of the rocket.

Report of a military doctor
? 16-450 of Unit

"T he condition of the object is due
to the skull-brain trauma."

" Head and body have
numerous scars."

" It is possible to hallucinate."

"Submitted to the psychiatric
hospital in Chita."

Ready?
- Aye.

Recording.

How was Japanese territory
Occupird?

Chilean port of Arica . . .

Island Nuku-Khiva . . .

Solomon island...

Chinese port Syamin Amoy . . .

Marquesas Islands,
Island Nuku-Khiva . . .

We didn't manage to show the
whole of Haralamov's journey.

Because of military bases, banal
lack of money . . .

But we found another witness.

He arrived with a Philippine trawler,

he was banished,
he couldn't work.

He was ill.

We also wanted him out.

But we put him in the largest
house in the village.

Then I gave him a boat.

A nice boat.

Haralamov sailed the Pacific

and walked throughout China.

From south to north.

Along the straight line...

You are free,
go into the tent.

Note of the report of the Chief
department, 1 3 of the NKVD.

" In the inquest it was found
that the object is unavailable

and needs special treatment.

Stop.

Stop!

Soviet psychiatry has
made a great successes,

thanks to the occupational
therapy

and to the work in the
collective.

Wrapping with wet towels
had a good influence

on the psyches of patients.

Comatose insuline blockade
was successfully applied.

Application of insluing - a
Substance released by the pancreas.

This method relies on

positive changes of metabolism.

Good results are achieved by
electroshock therapy too.

Ivan willingly accepted
all procedures.

Painful procedures.

He wanted to be cured.
And to tell.

But the treatment

didn't give any results.

His strength returned.

He could still talk.

I tried to teach him
to write again.

But he didn't want.

Ivan fled...

Autumn, after a year.

Do you like to cook?

No.

What is your favorite meal?

Plotavian roast.

Really?

I don't know. Really.

You always tell the truth?

I don't lie to anyone.

You were close to Haralamov.

I wouldn't want to gossip.

I don't gossip.

You know the instruction
which prohibits

to let the patients go?

Yes.
- Where is he?

I don't know.

Where is he?!
- I really don't know!

Did he mention any
addresses, names?

No, nothing.

I lied to him!

Ivan wrote many letters.

More specifically, I wrote them,
he dictated.

To whom he wrote them?

To politbiro, to the circus,
To Nadezhda Svetlaya.

Many letters.

But . . . I'm not sending them.

I write and hide them. . .

I was afraid for Ivan.

Are the letters preserved?

No, Ivan found them.

He no longer spoke with me...

until he left the next month.

I looked for him. . .

But no one had heard of him
like he didn't existed.

After a year I got married.

My husband was among the first

which passed the northern sea route
in one season.

And I have given birth to
two daughters.

37 people are listed in the operational
development of the NKVD

in the case of Ivan Harlamov.

Joseph Petrovich Isakov,

participant in the blind men choir
in the mine of Krilatovo...

He claims that in 1 929
he was an accountant

But there is evidence
that to 1 949

he worked as a longshoreman
on Botraki port.

Until he was fired because
of eye disease

which occurred after trauma
on his head.

Babadzhyan Gaparov.

According to passport - Tajik,
but he does not speak Tajik.

All over his head and body --
many scars.

The right hand - scar
from a gunshot wound.

After questioning the deserter
from colone ? 1 22

he was opet for investigation.

Eugene Gluhov. . .

Sergei Plohotin. . .

Sergei Zuenko. . .

They've been looking for Ivan
for many years.

And didn't find him.

KGB discovered traces of Suprun
after 30 years.

In 1 968

there was a very strange problem.

Half-year results of covert
surveillance

over an old graveyard keeper

in a suburb of Cape Town.

I remember this.

They called him
"Alexander Nevsky" .

He came to the circus in 1 946.

After the illness.
He said - after the illness.

He didn't talk much.
And stayed.

Intially a costumer,

then our art teacher
invented him a number.

The man called
Alexander Nevsky,

leaves Ulyanovsk circus
tt the end of 1 951 .

We do not have any more information
about Ivan Harlamov.

THE FIRST IN SPACE

The time when the spacecraft,
led by a man

would corss the universe

isn't far away!

Currently, scientists are experimenting

with various
biological crews.

The flight involves bacteria,
Viruses, onions,

bees, mice, rats,
rabbits, dogs.
