MOSCOW, August 31 (RIA Novosti) - Russia plans to send cosmonauts to the Moon by 2025 and establish a permanent manned base there in 2027-2032, the head of the space agency said Friday.

Anatoly Perminov said that in accordance with Russia's space program through 2040, a manned flight to Mars will be carried out after 2035.

He said that toward the end of this year, Russia will have 103 satellites in orbit, up from the current 95.

There are plans for a new space center in the country, but a site has not yet been selected, he said. Russia currently launches all manned flights from the Baikonur space center in Kazakhstan. Perminov said previously that construction of a new launch facility would only begin after a new type of spacecraft was built.

A major source of revenue for the agency in recent years has been space tourist flights from Baikonur to the International Space Station (ISS), with tickets currently priced at around $30 million. Russia has put five wealthy foreign tourists into space since 2001.

Perminov said the first Russian space tourist, who will fly to the ISS in 2009, is a businessman and politician.

"He asked me not to disclose his name yet. I can only say that he is a serious young Russian businessman and politician. He is currently undergoing medical tests."

The agency chief said that in 2016-25, after the ISS is put out of operation, Russia plans to deploy a platform in a low-earth orbit to assemble spacecraft.

The United States has said the station should be scrapped in 2015, while Russia has proposed using the Russian segment until 2020.

Perminov said: "The ISS will be transformed into a laboratory complex where research will be conducted."

They'd better start building the studio now! I doubt if the Americans will let them use the Area 51 set.

Any actors out there want a job? Involves wearing fake space suits and spending many months out at Kapustin Yar!:D

december... man the way you churn this information out its amazing man its like your some kind of machine! ;)

:D <3

Americans filmed their Moon landing for PROPAGANDA purposes. It was diferent time back then.
But today Russia plans to set up a permanent base on Moon to claim the territory.



......out at Kapustin Yar!:D

Most likely it will be launched from the cosmodrome in Plesetsk.

Plesetsk Cosmodrome is a Russian spaceport, located in Arkhangelsk Oblast, about 800 km north of Moscow and south of Arkhangelsk.

It was originally developed by the Soviet Union as a launch site for intercontinental ballistic missiles. Construction started in 1957 and it was declared operational for R-7 rockets in December 1959. The urban-type settlement of Plesetsk in Arkhangelsk Oblast had a railway station, essential for the transport of missile components. A new town for the support of the facility was named Mirny, Russian for "peaceful". By 1997, more than 1,500 launches to space had been made from the site, more than for any other launch facility, although the usage has declined significantly since the breakup of the Soviet Union.

The existence of Plesetsk Cosmodrome was originally kept secret, but it was discovered by British physics teacher Geoffrey Perry and his students, who carefully analyzed the orbit of the Cosmos 112 satellite in 1966 and deduced it had not been launched from Baikonur Cosmodrome. After the end of the Cold War it was learned that the CIA had begun to suspect the existence of an ICBM launch site at Plesetsk in the late 1950s. The Soviet Union did not officially admit the existence of Plesetsk Cosmodrome until 1983.

I was insinuating that the Russians will fake this new mission too. If it wasn't possible to reach the moon in 1969, are we sure it's possible now? Even though tecnology has advanced, solar flares and micrometeors are still solar flares and micrometeors.

[brotherapostate]

I heard it said that the moon is billions of years older than the earth (think about that) and that it once acted as earth, destroyed in great wars. Through the testimony of people at the Disclosure project, I doubt the Russians would be able to stay up there. Those testimonies speak of finding bases on the Moon, they know that somebody is there or has been there - Russia would be blasted into oblivion.

Which is, of course, just my opinion.

Why are so negative, suspicious and see nothing but fraud? It is not good for your health.

[tinmenace]

I don't care which country is planning to go to the Moon, but I have to wonder WHY? Claim the territory for what purpose? What is in the future that they know about that we don't?

I agree with it. You've seen the Disclosure Project interviews? The best one is that guy who worked at the NASA photolab who saw the base on the moon.

I take a different view from most Apollohoax theorists in that not only do I believe man really has gone to the moon, but we did it decades, even centiries before Apollo, using secret/alien technology. We probably have bases on the moon and planets, either all human or jointly alien and human. The testimony of the Relfes in "The Mars Records" matches what the Disclosure witnesses have said.

Apollo was just like Columbus "discovering" America. It became politically necessary for the public to beleive that we'd gone there, so a half-arsed story was concoted that three guys went there in primitive chemical combustion rockets and bounced around for a few hours before returning safely to Earth and a tickertape parade. The pictures were all shot at Area 51 or some other secret base... or maybe they really did shoot them on the moon or a similar heavenly body. They just took the astronauts there in a flying saucer, did the filming then whipped them back to Earth in time to put them in the Apollo 11 rocket and blast them into space. The Saturn V rocket is capable of launching a small payload into low Earth orbit (That's about all it's capable of!)

Maybe, but I don't smoke and eat good food. I'm not going to live forever no matter what I do! :D

there is more chance of "mr spoon" in his "baked bean can" with a funnel on top
getting there!

shit thats gona be a good movie

Well, one thing is for sure - UK (aka Great Britain) cannot even dream about it....

Russian satellites: smaller, lighter, cheaper
04/ 09/ 2007


MOSCOW. (Yury Zaitsev for RIA Novosti) - Mini-satellites are all the rage these days. None of the Russian space firms attending the MAKS-2007 air show failed to exhibit one.

Modern technologies enable spacecraft weighing a few hundred kilograms to perform tasks once the preserve of satellites of several tons.

Satellites are getting ever lighter and smaller: there are already micro-satellites with a weight of between 10 and 100 kg, and nano-satellites, between 1 and 10 kg. Designers have even conceived of pico-satellites, weighing less than one kilogram, but they are still a long way off.

All these "babies" cannot, of course, completely replace their big brothers. One cannot, for example, reduce the size of space observatories (you cannot cheat the laws of optics) or interplanetary stations designed for comprehensive research, such as the delivery of extra-terrestrial matter to Earth.

One of the advantages of mini-satellites is their low production and launch cost. They are relatively inexpensive, easily adapted to different missions and can be placed in orbit by light or heavy rockets by the dozen. Because they cost less, mini satellites reduce the financial risks of losses from failures on the ground or in space. Such craft can also be stringed together to produce multiple systems, useful in communications, Earth monitoring, and research.

Conquer the moon to have better satellites....Ok gotcha :)

Well, y'all are the Vodka-drinking capital of the world....I'll consider it. Say, y'all have Cranberry juice? I can't do it without Cranberry juice....:D
