The Space Race again.
RIA Novosti - Russia - Russia to send manned mission to the Moon by 2025 - space agencyThough it seems odd that a country as strapped for cash as Russia is would do this. National presteige, however, has little to do with common sense.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.
I wonder how long it'll be before they stop cooperating with NASA for Space Station supply shots?
