Katyusha Planet
In the vastness of the universe, there is a small planet called Katyusha, named after Ekaterina Ivanovna Zelenko. It is difficult to find words worthy of the feat accomplished by the brave pilot. The history of wars knows many examples of women taking up arms alongside men to defend their homeland from foreign invaders and fighting to the last breath. However, it was Katya Zelenko who became the only woman in the world to perform an aerial ram. On September 13, 1941, while returning from a mission near the city of Sumy, Zelenko, the deputy commander of the squadron, engaged in combat with seven enemy fighters on a Su-2 bomber. She had repeatedly emerged victorious in battles against the Nazi vultures. This time, even when her ammunition ran out, she managed to bring down a Messerschmitt by hitting its tail with the propeller of her aircraft. However, the forces were too unequal... Katyusha planet is spinning in the boundless Cosmos. It serves as a reminder of what price we paid for peaceful life, for our happiness. It does not allow us to forget about the feats of the heroes of that war. page 2
