to reach the topmost planet of this universe, but the process called  bhaktiyoga , as executed by Mahārāja Dhruva, can give one the facility not only to reach other planets within this universe, but also to reach beyond this universe to the Viṣṇuloka planets. We have outlined this in our small booklet  Easy Journey to Other Planets .

PURPORT
According to astronomical calculation, along with the Pole Star there is another star, which is called Śiśumāra, where Lord Viṣṇu, who is in charge of the maintenance of this material world, resides. Śiśumāra or Dhruvaloka can never be reached by anyone but the Vaiṣṇavas, as will be described by the following  ślokas . The associates of Lord Viṣṇu brought the special airplane for Dhruva Mahārāja and then informed him that Lord Viṣṇu had especially sent this airplane.
The Vaikuṇṭha airplane does not move by mechanical arrangement. There are three processes for moving in outer space. One of the processes is known to the modern scientist. It is called  kapota-vāyu .  Ka  means outer space, and  pota  means ship. There is a second process also called  kapota-vāyu .  Kapota  means pigeon. One can train pigeons to carry one into outer space. The third process is very subtle. It is called  ākāśa-patana . This  ākāśa-patana  system is also material. Just as the mind can fly anywhere
