After 2030 Russia will create a new earth orbital station. It will be the headquarters of the entire orbital grouping of the Russian Federation, can be used to refuel satellites and spacecraft, as well as assemblies of designs for missions to Mars and the moon.
“in fact, we are creating the step to conquer outer space due to the fact that this station will have such functionality”, – said General Director of “Rosatom” Dmitry Rogozin during a broadcast on the YouTube channel “Soloviev LIVE”.
When you create the station will use modules that were previously planned to be sent to the International space station (ISS). We are talking about two backup modules. One of them is nodal and it is already created, the second is energy, which will provide station power.
According to the idea of specialists in orbit will be possible to assemble space structures, so as to raise them from the Ground very difficult and hard, you need a powerful rocket. At the station, this work will deal with will be the crew, writes TASS. It is also planned to carry out the construction, maintenance, replacement of components and parts that will be needed either at the station or for space systems. These devices and systems will be built on open architecture principles.
we will Remind, about plans to build new orbital station Rogozin announced on may 25. It is not clear what it will be international or national, visited or inhabited. This is a question that will decide in the near future, but technical training should start now, said the head of “Roskosmos”. The need for a new station due to the fact that ISS, in his opinion, will last another 7-10 years, as there is a fatigue design and a specified resource modules.
