Abstract
In relation with the 60th anniversary of the first flight of humans to the space, a retrospective is presented in this paper concerning the development of spatial technologies, starting from the first theoretical concepts of the rocket science and ending with the today's projects of launching humans to other planets. In particular, the competition between the USA and USSR for the first space flight and the human flight to the Moon are analyzed. The technical characteristics of rockets for placing payloads on the low earth orbit and beyond as well as those of the rocket-spaceship systems are discussed.
