Afraid not to invest in the Russian president set deadlines, the Russian space agency is ready to go for a reckless step. As a result, with ultramodern spaceport “East”, whose construction is coming to an end in December this year will launch the Soviet “Union” 60-ies. Instead, the new technology will fly into space “Union”, whose age has already 50 years old. Thus, the Federal Space Agency to perform the obligations regarding the item, the launch of the spacecraft in 2018. For more information on this case can be found on the information portal of Industrial Journalism Club.
When Roskosmos, represented by Anatoly Perminov, the Russian president urged the need to allocate money to build a spaceport “East” – a major argument was to build a platform for innovative spacecraft. Putin has always supported the idea to be as independent of other countries and the first in every area, so the money was allocated. Knowing Russian feature tighten voiced data, Putin clearly prescribed not only the end of construction, but also the first start – rocket with the satellite in 2015 and a manned flight in 2018.
The idea of construction of the cosmodrome “East”, has many advantages for Russian space exploration and the economy:
implements all the required inclination launch spacecraft;
location allows not to endanger human life;
Parts of carrier rockets will fall in international waters and non-residential land;
The territory of the cosmodrome is located in a place where developed road links;
savings on rent, which now have to pay for Baikonur. Now Russia annually pays $ 115 million.
The Russian president did not consider only one, in the desire to perform a prescribed arrangement in Space flight is not a new ship, through which Russian Spaceport glorified even more, and the old time-tested “Union”, created in the 60s. Specialists in astronautics argue that spaceship, though created in the last century, but every year improved, second-hand articles so it certainly will not be called.
Earlier information portal commander of published data on the reasons for the delay of construction of the cosmodrome “East”. Himself spaceport “East” is not completed, despite the fact that this year should start the first rocket. However, with the ingenuity of staff, it can be launched directly from the site, only to have time to do it this year. Mikhail Fadeev argues – that everything goes according to schedule, to accelerate the pace – works are almost around the clock, so running will be made on time.
At the very least, this year plans to launch a rocket with a satellite “Lomonosov” as planned earlier. You can not say about the space program – “Angara-5″, which was supposed to be ready by 2018. To date, the completion of work on the project is scheduled in the floating period from 2016 to 2015.
According to the new head of the Federal Space Agency, the delay in the construction of the cosmodrome “East” is related to the negligence of the former leadership. Igor Komarov said that when he took office, he found that the decision to start work at the cosmodrome “East” is still no sign, and those were not. reference naturally stood still in a frozen state. Now go to work in an accelerated program, spaceport built for days.
At the end of January Rogozin personally inspected the construction site of the cosmodrome” East “, and at the same time and met with all stakeholders in the construction site to start spaceships.
The meeting was also attended by:
Oleg Kozhemyako – governor of the province;
Alexander Hair – Director Spetsstroy;
Igor Komarov – the head of the Russian Space Agency.
All the above-mentioned officials arrived to assess the actual timing of construction of the cosmodrome at the moment building is clearly lagging, and not for one month, but given that the work is being done around the clock – there is a chance to catch.
