Soviet Cosmonaut Rescue Vehicle Restored to Former Glory

Description

This Soviet-era Zil PEU-1B six-wheeled rover was commissioned during the height of the Cold War by the USSR to retrieve fallen satellites, space junk and even cosmonauts returning from orbit. The search and rescue vehicle has been lovingly restored to its former glory over three years on the territory of the old Zil factory in Moscow and is now roving through the countryside once more.

  • Screw That! This Restored Soviet Vehicle is Propelled By Giant Screws

    Soviet engineers designed a truck with an underside propelled forward by giant turning screws in the 1970's, but production stopped before the collapse of the USSR. Now the one-of-a-kind truck is being produced again to tackle Russia's squishy swampland. No, we're not screwing around, this Soviet-designed ZVM-2901 all-terrain screw-propelled vehicle is back on the assembly line at the Nizhniy Novgorod Plant of All-terrain Vehicles.

  • How This Rescue Worker Saved A Baby Elephant Hit By A Motorcyle

    A baby elephant struck by a motorcycle on Sunday while crossing a road with a group of wild pachyderms in the province of Chanthaburi, Thailand. But according to HuffPost, a quick-thinking and highly experienced rescue worker saved the little one using CPR. Both the rider and elephant are recovering. Neither had serious injuries. In his 26 years as a rescue worker, Mana Srivate has performed dozens of resuscitation attempts--but never before on an elephant. Srivate said he made an educated guess about the location of the elephant's heart, based on his knowledge of human anatomy and a video he saw online. It’s my instinct to save lives, but I was worried the whole time because I can hear the mother and other elephants calling for the baby. When the baby elephant starting to move, I almost cried.

  • Russian Street Musicians Tour Across Europe and Asia in Soviet-Made Volga Cars

    A creative collective from Moscow calling themselves the Sunrise Expedition have been making waves on Russian social media for one of the most ambitious adventures ever undertaken by a musical group. These traveling musicians, illustrators, and tattoo artists have traveled tens of thousands of miles all over Europe and Asia on Soviet-made Volga cars in order to perform concerts wherever the wind takes them. They drove out from Moscow in fall of 2016, traveled across Asia to Bali, Indonesia by car, and arrived back in Moscow in early 2017, becoming the first musicians to perform in Tibet in the process. The Sunrise Expedition have embarked on a new journey called "To the Atlantic," with the aim of driving all the way out to the famous surf city of Nazare, Portugal. Ruptly caught up with the adventurers in Berlin.
