The Forgotten USSR Probe That Chased Halley’s Comet

What is the dark truth hidden inside the cosmic monster we’ve feared for 2,000 years? In 1986, while the world panicked over the return of Halley's Comet, the Soviet Union launched one of the most daring and forgotten space missions in history: The Vega Program. In this video, we dive deep into how USSR spacecraft Vega 1 and Vega 2 survived a deadly 79 km/s dust storm to capture the first-ever images of Halley's pitch-black nucleus. From deploying alien weather balloons in Venus's extreme atmosphere to discovering the building blocks of life inside a comet, discover the incredible true story that Cold War politics tried to bury. Will the 2061 return of Halley's Comet reveal even more secrets?
