Description: Kindergarten director Zinaida Shalte with a teacher and pupils wearing homemade cosmonaut ‘helmets’ during a children's party at the kindergarten. The space race between the USSR and the USA (1957-1975) influenced public space mania, and the heroism of space conquerors influenced children's dreams. In ideological education, space became the antithesis of religion, so it was encouraged even more from the moment a Soviet child entered the preschool education system.
