Towards the Dream (1958)

This is a small Russian space book. It was not for children but has many great illustrations of a possible space future. There are so many nice illustrations that I will break this up into 2 parts:


Towards the Dream. Lyapunov. Moscow. 167 pp. 17 cm. 1958

I will welcome any better translation of the title.

Landing on the Moon

 It seems to me that all these illustrations were done as painting but it was too expensive to make them all in color.  Maybe someone else recognizes the artist or the source?

 I like the aquatic return to earth.

 This section focuses on building the space station

 Hydroponics in Space!!!!

 This section seems to be about the landing on Mars
