Hi! I’m cosmonaut Alexander Misurkin. My AI assistants, Luke and "19-57", will answer your questions about space flights, my talks, and our book. Just write what you are interested in!
The path to the stars begins on Earth
We chose the name "B-612" deliberately — it combines both a connection to space and a direct relation to our mission.
B-612 is the asteroid of the Little Prince from Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's novella, his home and starting point where he found his calling and the meaning of life in caring for single rose and his home.
Our main goal is to help young people consciously move toward self-realization and search for their calling and life's meaning by engaging their interest in cosmonautics. Perhaps our organization will also become such a starting point for someone.

Philosophy of Creativity
Challenges of Our Time
Humanity is facing unprecedented challenges: technological singularity, environmental crises, social inequality, threat of self-destruction. The scale of these problems appears overwhelming, which naturally raises a question: “Who is capable of changing at least something?”
Many people think: “Only heads of state, huge corporations, international organizations”. However, this is a manifestation of one of the key psychological traps, namely shifting responsibility. “Everything depends on somebody else, but not on me”. This approach paralyzes our will and deprives us of the ability to act. But a different way also exists.
Great Things Start Small
Truth is, great changes always start small. That is, with anyone who invests in good deeds, be that establishing a shelter for homeless animals; running a business where creation of a real value for people comes first and profit becomes a natural result of useful activity, not a goal in itself, or public service with a vision of key meaning in serving people. All things mentioned above are different forms of creative approach to life.
The more people who solve creative tasks that are feasible and interesting to everyone, the higher the creative potential of society as a whole. And only that kind of society has a real chance to cope with global challenges.
From Consumption to Creation Through Happiness
We believe that anyone has the potential to be a creator. But today’s world often turns us into consumers of ready-made solutions, other people's thoughts, imposed goals.
Our philosophy is based on a simple principle: those who follow their “strong line”, namely their natural abilities and true interests, who have found their calling, naturally become happy. They will inevitably be successful in their field. And, having achieved personal goals, remaining happy and fulfilled, they also naturally adopt the need to create for society, to improve the world around. Not out of a sense of duty or self-sacrifice, but out of an inner need to share their happiness and skill. And in this creation for others, they find a new source of happiness.
The story of Alexander Misurkin is a living confirmation of this philosophy. Having set a goal to become a cosmonaut at the age of twelve, he intuitively made the right choices on the way to his dream. Only years later, having become acquainted with the concept of “strong line”, Alexander realized that all of his decisions corresponded to his natural abilities and true interests. Having made his dream come true and succeeded in the profession of a cosmonaut, he now strives to share this knowledge and personal example with those who are at the point of choosing their way of life.
Cosmonautics as a Path to Dreams
For us, cosmonautics is first and foremost a source of inspiration and romance. We want to kindle in young hearts a passion for space exploration by sharing achievements in the field, its heroes, and incredible possibilities.
But cosmonautics also becomes a universal tool for personal transformation. Stories of space exploration and personal examples of those who achieved their goals help people reflect on essential questions: "Who do I want to be?", "What truly interests me?", "What are my strengths?", "How do I see my future?" and "How do I get there?". Through interest in space, we strive to inspire youth to take independent steps toward finding their calling, realizing their potential, and choosing the path of creative contribution.
Our Mission
We inspire future creators of the space industry and help everyone find their way from consumption to creation through personal happiness and self-realization.
We strive to form a society where everyone:
- realizes his/her unique abilities and talents;
- finds a life's work that corresponds to his/her nature;
- comes to the need to create through personal happiness from self-realization;
- makes his/her unique contribution to overcoming the challenges of humanity.
Our Way
Space has taught us the most important thing: boundaries only exist in our minds. And if a twelve-year-old boy from Orel was able to become a cosmonaut by following his dream, then everyone is capable of reaching their “star”. All you need to do is help them believe in it and find their way.
We don't teach people who to be. Our goal is to help them understand who they already are and how to develop their potential. After all, when people do what corresponds to their nature, they don't just work — they create, build, make life around them a little better.
And even if those creative steps seem small, together they pave a long way. Hand in hand, we are able to change the world for the better.
