Space travel  has always been possible, and  people have been traveling the universe   long before the invention of rockets and shuttles. Vedic evidence   suggests that yogis and  other  more evolved beings can travel freely   throughout   the cosmos via technologies that are practically unknown  to us today.

Srila Prabhupada wrote Easy Journey to Other Planets—with  its   frequent mention of "antimatter" and "antimaterial  particles"—in 1960, in response to the "space race" going on at the time  between the  U.S. and U.S.S.R., and the obsession with exploration of  the   moon, etc.  by means of rocket-powered spacecraft.  Prabhupada questions the ultimate significance of such endeavors, while   pointing out that the  exploration of material space is neither a new   idea nor the most intelligent one, from the spiritual point of view.

In Easy Journey To Other Planets, Prabhupada shows through reason and  reference to ancient Vedic texts that travel to other planets within  this universe is ultimately an insignificant project. Our desire for  cosmic exploration, he says, can be fully satisfied by traveling beyond  this limited universe to the unlimited, antimaterial, spiritual world.
