Whether you're identifying constellations or simply marvelling at the vastness of the universe, stargazing here is a humbling and exhilarating experience.
Beyond rockets and space exploration, Baikonur is home to a vibrant community. Engage with locals to understand their unique lifestyle, influenced by the omnipresent space industry.
