Нашла в нете:
5 самых клевых вещей, которые мы запустили в космос.
Статья на английском, с юмористического американского сайта, но можно почитать :) Там правда.
Плюс мне очень понравилось вступление:
Gravity is the inescapable jerk boss constantly reminding you of your weight, ruining your toast, and punching you in the face every time you fall over. Orbit is how you change it from a slave driver to a dance partner. Rocket science is reality judo, using the universe's own fundamental forces to escape their otherwise all-powerful grip. There's a simple reason we use "rocket science" to represent everything intelligent and impressive about humanity: Because that's what it is.
