Space: the motion vector

Roscosmos Oleg Ostapenko started the week with a trip to Baikonur. At the beginning of November, "Gagarin's Start" spaceport will go into orbit manned "Soyuz". The next leg of the trip - the Amur region, where there is a construction of a new space port - cosmodrome "East".

 

The Russian space program changes its appearance. The new head of the Russian Federal Space Agency and a new perspective on the problem. Oleg Ostapenko part of the course of affairs in place - at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in those days ended in preparation for the launch of the carrier rocket "Proton" with American communications satellite "Sirius."

 

"Proton", "Zenith", "Union". Head of the Federal Space Agency two days toured the entire spaceport. Hundreds of kilometers. Particular attention - preparing for the launch of a manned rocket "Soyuz". Her next start in November - is unusual. Rocket in the Olympic livery takes to orbit the Sochi Olympics torch. The astronauts will go into orbit with "Gagarin's start." This landmark complex keeps working more than half a century. And obviously, the launch pad waiting for modernization.

 

"At one time there was a task - to put a man into space, and this task was working the whole country. We now have to do so in order to work well, not the whole country, but at least give impetus to all the technological processes that will ensure this problem, which we define. Based on this, we will get the result that is expected of us "- said the head of the Federal Space Agency Oleg Ostapenko

 

Time will tell what to expect from the new expeditions into space. The next step is to plan carefully prepare the universe - along with the scientists. But whether it's a stellar mission to Mars, the moon or asteroid, in any case, no person can not do.

 

"The manned program is important. After all, what our colleagues are doing and consider questions and Mars, and other features, we also stand on the sidelines will not, we are also in the plan will work. One of the directions in this respect - it's manned space programs, because only one robot, we can not work out, "- says Oleg Ostapenko.

 

However, to start - is small. In relation to the work of each of those involved in the creation and launch of space rocket technology. The new head of the saw for myself - eyes rocket burn, it is only necessary to adjust the motion vector.

 

"Quality - it's certainly one of the main areas. Quality should not only be in the final product, the quality should be built into humans. The product has to be done professionally, with high culture and reliability, and all the elements of one thing - quality. And here we have to make crucial step forward, "- says Oleg Ostapenko.

 

After the new head of the Baikonur Space Agency - familiarity with the spaceport East. As often happens in space, a new star harbor in the Far East - the successor to the military rocket range free. Global mission, which is waiting for the Russian space program, will be launched from this site.
