Kasachstan gestaltet Weltraumstartplätze aus der Sowjetzeit als Touristenattraktionen neu

Kasachstan verwandelt die Startplätze des weltweit ersten Kosmodroms in ein Tourismuszentrum mit dem Ziel, bis 2029 50.000 Besucher mit Glamping, Hotels und einem Kinderferienlager am Geburtsort der bemannten Raumfahrt anzulocken.

00:00The new eco-friendly Soyuz-5 rocket, a joint Kazakh-Russian project,

00:04is set to lift off from the ground here at Baikonur from a modernized launch pad

00:08by the end of the year, signaling a new era and more frequency to these kind of launches.

00:18Kazakhstan is reimagining Baikonur Cosmodrome,

00:21which marks its 17th anniversary this year as a tourism hub between launches.

00:25Russia, which leases the site, has decommissioned and returned more than 50 facilities.

00:31Now Kazakhstan plans to build new visitor infrastructure around historic landmarks

00:36like Gagarin's launch pad, the site of humanity's first space flight,

00:40with hotels, glamping sites and even a children's camp.

00:45Join me as I explore how Kazakhstan is turning space exploration into a cultural experience.

00:51This is Modern Nomads.

00:55Baikonur Cosmodrome, set in Kazakhstan's southern steppes, is where the space race began.

01:02The first satellite launched here in 1957 was followed by the first human in 1961.

01:08Long before rockets launched, this land echoed with the legend of Korkı Tata,

01:12a mystic who created the kobız,

01:14an instrument set to bridge the earthly and cosmic realms through its sound.

01:18Legend says this is the Earth's navel, where cosmic energy flows straight into the steppe.

01:24Standing here at Gagarin's legendary launch pad, where the first human blasted into space,

01:31I can honestly say, you do feel it.

01:34Once hidden behind the Iron Curtain, these Soviet-era relics continue to captivate.

01:39I'm walking at the Energia test complex, once used to prepare the Soviet-era Energia rockets and Buran shuttle for launch.

01:47The towering structures here show the scale of Soviet ambitions in space.

01:56With over 300 sunny days a year, minimal wind and a location near the equator,

02:02Baikonur is ideal for space launches.

02:05Earth's spin gives rockets a head start.

02:07But beyond engineering, Baikonur could also serve as a launch pad for diplomacy, innovation, and global dialogue,

02:16with parts of the site envisioned as immersive stays and cultural retreats.

02:20At this point, we are going to develop four areas of cosmic and marine tourism.

02:27The first is educational tours.

02:29The second product is related to cultural and scientific tours.

02:33The third is events.

02:34And the fourth is actively actively active tours.

02:39If accommodation expands, Baikonur could host 50,000 visitors annually by 2029,

02:45a five-fold increase from today,

02:46prompting experts to imagine new ways to unlock its full tourism potential.

02:52It would be good if people could see it in their eyes at the moment of launch.

02:55It would be the same king, who gives a surprise for launching a rocket.

02:59And so they could be able to launch a new technology through command.

03:02They would be able to launch that rocket.

03:04And the vision extends beyond tourism.

03:06As Kazakhstan advances its own space program, including the Baikonur rocket complex,

03:11it envisions Baikonur as a hub for science and education.

03:15Baikonur is more than a launch site.

03:45For creatives, thinkers, and dreamers, it's a boundary between the known and the unknown.

03:50A space to imagine, to create, to reflect.

03:53That is a kind of one-in-a-lifetime experience.

03:56This event really can make you cry.

03:58So I really recommend you.

04:00And when you go to such kind of trips, you have some expectations.

04:06And I had some expectations, but that was beyond all of them.

04:09I highly recommend trip to Baikonur during the launch, during the normal time, just to visit the museum and the facility that Baikonur has.

04:18Because that really touched my soul, touched my heart, and I really enjoy it.

04:23It was such an explosion of emotions from the seen, and you're as if you're surrounded by some new ones.

04:32I don't know, it's so powerful, it's such a huge energy when you're there.

04:37So with a huge enthusiasm and enthusiasm, we're back home.

04:42Kazakhstan isn't just a place between east and west, it's a bridge between earth and space.

04:47The creators of Baikonur open-air space museum say, the new era isn't eastward, it's upward.

04:54See you next time on Modern Nomads.
