Cosmic Research publishes scientific papers covering all subjects of space science and technology, including the following: ballistics, flight dynamics of the Earth’s artificial satellites and automatic interplanetary stations; problems of transatmospheric descent; design and structure of spacecraft and scientific research instrumentation; life support systems and radiation safety of manned spacecrafts; exploration of the Earth from Space; exploration of near space; exploration of the Sun, planets, secondary planets, and interplanetary medium; exploration of stars, nebulae, interstellar medium, galaxies, and quasars from spacecraft; and various astrophysical problems related to space exploration. A chronicle of scientific events and other notices concerning the main topics of the journal are also presented.PEER REVIEWCosmic Research is a peer reviewed journal. We use a single/double blind depending on the paper level. Our team of reviewers includes 35 reviewers, both internal and external (70%). The average period from submission to first decision in 2017 was 14 days, and that from first decision to acceptance was 75 days. The rejection rate for submitted manuscripts in 2017 was 25%.
