The Tupolev TU-130 is a really big airplane that was built by a company named Tupolev in Russia. It was designed to help carry lots of people and lots of really heavy things, like big machines or even other airplanes.
Think of it like a really big truck, but instead of driving on the road, it flies in the sky. The TU-130 is also really fast and can travel really long distances without needing to stop and refuel.
The way it works is kind of like how a bird works to fly. Birds use their wings to generate lift and stay in the air, and the TU-130 does the same thing with its big wings. The engines on the airplane provide the power to keep it moving and help it go up in the air.
The inside of the TU-130 is like a big room with seats for the passengers and space for the cargo. There's also a cockpit where the pilots sit and control the airplane.
Even though the TU-130 was made a long time ago, it was a really important airplane in its time because it helped move lots of important things and people all over the world.
