‘I was surrounded by stars, floating without control,’ recalls cosmonaut Alexei Leonov, the first man to walk in space who passed away this week. He made history 50 years ago on a mission that nearly cost him his life. As a celebrated artist he brought colored pencils to sketch the view of Earth. His drawing sunrise drawing is the first piece of art created in space. Blessed spaceman, rest in peace - Comrade. *Alexei Leonov, the first man to walk in space | Science | The Guardian | May 2015* www.theguardian.com/science/2015/may/09/alexei-leonov-first-man-to-walk-in-space-soviet-cosmonaut) [ Fifty years ago, Alexei Leonov opened the airlock of his tiny space capsule, which was orbiting the Earth, and stepped into the void. For 12 minutes the Soviet cosmonaut floated above our planet, tethered to his ship by a 16ft cable. In doing so, Leonov became the first person to walk in space. On 18 March he was blasted into orbit in a two-man Voskhod capsule which he shared with his commander, Pavel Belyayev. After completing one orbit, Leonov was given the go-ahead to begin his spacewalk and crawled into the craft’s makeshift airlock. He opened its hatch, slid out and floated into space to begin his mission. Leonov still remembers the utter silence he experienced when he emerged from his spaceship. “It was so quiet I could even hear my heart beat,” he told the Observer. “I was surrounded by stars and was floating without much control. I will never forget the moment. I also felt an incredible sense of responsibility. Of course, I did not know that I was about to experience the most difficult moments of my life - getting back into the capsule.” Leonov’s spacewalk very nearly ended in disaster. In the vacuum of outer space, his spacesuit began to balloon out of shape and its fabric began to stiffen dangerously. His hands slipped out of his gloves, his feet came out of his boots, and Leonov could no longer get through his spaceship’s airlock. Even worse, the craft was hurtling towards Earth’s shadow. In five minutes, the cosmonaut realised he would be plunged into total darkness. So he began bleeding air from his suit from a valve in its inner lining. Very slowly his suit deflated, just as Leonov began to notice the first signs of decompression sickness. “I could feel pins and needles in my hands and legs,” he recalled. Leonov squeezed himself headfirst through the airlock and just managed to close its hatch behind him, his temperature by now soaring through the extreme exertion of his return to the spaceship. Leonov slumped back in his seat beside Belyayev. His woes were far from over, however. First, a charge was fired to blast the airlock - which was no longer needed - into space. The explosion caused Voskhod 2 to rotate, disorienting its two crewmen. At the same time, instruments showed oxygen levels in the capsule were now climbing at an alarming rate, threatening to trigger a blaze that would have burned both men alive. Several hours passed before Leonov and Belyayev could get the craft’s oxygen levels back to normal. By now, the spaceship was scheduled to return to Earth. However, the two cosmonauts discovered its automatic re-entry system no longer worked. So the pair fired the craft’s re-entry rockets manually. This manoeuvre should have separated the landing capsule, containing Leonov and Belyayev, from the spaceship’s orbital module. “A few seconds after the firing of the engine, we felt a jolt as the orbital module separated from our cabin - but something went wrong,” said Leonov. “We felt a tugging force pulling us back! I looked out of a window and saw the orbital module was still connected to us by a communications cable. As a result, both modules were spinning rapidly as we fell steeply to Earth!” Voskhod 2 was plunging to destruction, but was saved by the heat of re-entry which burnt through the communications cable. The landing module separated and its parachutes were deployed. “We were safe,” he said. The crewmen’s problems had still not reached an end. Their craft landed 2,000 kilometres downrange from its intended target and plunged into a dense Siberian forest. It took two days before a rescue mission reached the pair, who had to huddle in their tiny capsule in temperatures well below zero. “We spent two cold nights in the forest,” said Leonov. “We did not meet wolves or bears, but we knew that there were many of them around. It was spring time and the animals were very aggressive. ...]

I'd imagine they went to such great lengths to keep the caps in place with the epoxy and metal ties because the whole thing would be subject to literally oodles of vibrations when the Soyuz took off. I remember seeing a video about how they prepared and tested the Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator for the Perseverance rover and part of the testing was shaking violently in the x, y and z planes to make sure it would survive launch. So protection against vibration is a big deal when it comes to anything meant to fly on a spacecraft.

Congratulations from Russia! I hope you'll publish its circuits after finish of reverse engineering process. So people can try to create DIY repliques.

Не имеет смысла, схема рассчитана на советские компоненты, они сильно отличаются от западных, найти их в современной России не так уж и легко, в этих компонентах были редкоземельные элементы, поэтому подобные устройства могли работать очень долго стабильно, без сбоев. Эти платы собирали и тестировали живые люди а не роботы, платы тоже рисовались руками. Все компоненты покрыты сверху слоем эпоксидного клея, такие были стандарты качества у военных производств. Вы сильно удивитесь, но домашние компьютеры сделанные в СССР выглядели внутри точно так же, эти же заводы что производили военную электронику делали и товары для рядовых граждан страны, компьютеры, телефоны (не мобильные, стационарные с АОН), звонки (музыкальный звонок на процессоре 8080, думаю на западе это забыли еще в начале 80х) и тому подобное. Танталовые конденсаторы часто встречались в советских домашних компьютерах (существовали аналоги ZX spectrum, Commondore 64, etc.), точно так же платы были покрыты клеем, вместо шлейфов проводов, были одинарные проводки из провода типа МГТФ в виде шнурка как на видео, почему то на заводах не использовались готовые шлейфы...

Спасибо, что включили и показали как работает! Минимум элементов управления позволяют реализовать широкий функционал!: - установка всех разрядов часов только одной кнопкой - установка таймера на включение внешнего устройства - одной кнопкой - отдельный таймер (старт/пауза/стоп / гашение цифр таймера - все одной кнопкой) Также продумана эргономика: - размер и расположение элементов. - защита от случайного включения/отключения - фаски на индикаторах, чтобы можно было видеть под углом сбоку - замечательная цветовая гамма корпуса прибора! (серый, успокаивающий цвет. Но не серый который унылый) Комплектующие - "космические": танталовые электролиты, микросхемы все в металлокерамических корпусах. Степень интеграции микросхем невысокая (не было в то время более продвинутых), а потому столько много плат. Здесь в часах использована 134-серия (полностью скопирована с американской SN54Lxx) В отличие от широко распространенной 155 серии (она же 133-я в металлокерамическом корпусе), 134-я серия с пониженным энергопотреблением. Если у 133-й серии потребляемая мощность 22 милливатта на один вентиль (22мВт), то 134-я серия всего 1мВт. Что для космоса сверхважно. При этом права снижено максимальное быстродействие до 3...5МГц, но здесь больше и не нужно. При этом цоколевка 134-й отличается от общепринятой (в 155, 134, 555, 1531,1533 итд сериях - одинаково везде) Цоколевка 134-й серии соответствует SN54Lxx (здесь "L" - low power, те "маломощная") За надежность наших электронных компонентов и особенно качество сборки (пайки) - я абсолютно уверен. Западу можно поучиться. Все элементы на платах залиты эпоксидкой (попробуй разбери! ))) ). Заслуженная гордость за наших инженеров из 70-х, 80-х от просмотра видео !!! Авторам - спасибо!

Can the stop watch show the countdown to the event timer? :)

The mechanical version of this clock used a single pulse to advance the tick. I think the digital version integrated that 400Hz burst to advance the tick with an 80ms delay because the mechanical version used solenoids which are slower and take on the order of 80ms to actuate. They may have factored in that 80ms offset in the clock ticks in their original timing procedures/hardware, so the digital clock had to have the same tick latency else they would have to recalculate/document all of their critically timed events when using the digital clock.

The K52-1 is the one of most reliable capacitors. It has a pure silver can, inside of this сoncentrated sulfuric acid with tantalum oxide cathode.
