Cosmic prospects of Russia and our planet as a whole
Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation D. Rogozin, who is Member of the Supervisory Board of Roskosmos, on his social media blog TwitLonger also shared his thoughts and impressions from the beginning a new stage in the space development of Russia and our planet in whole.
In his opinion, the highest rating of the overclocking unit “Breeze-M” and the Russian carrier “Proton-N” from almost all scientists of the world, one way or another engaged in the field of space research can be called a kind of revenge for a series of past failures of Roscosmos. Especially offensive for the fiasco of the mission “Phobos-Grunt” 2011, however, Russia found the strength to cope with these mistakes and miscalculations. And this despite the seemingly complex economic situation in the Russian Federation, especially in connection with various sanctions against the country by the West.
Dmitry Rogozin also emphasized that joint development space scientists from different countries should help defuse international situation and the consolidation of peace on Earth. Probably, the leading countries of the planet should have long understood that today huge amounts of money should be invested not in the military industry, but in space. And when this fracture occurs, he stressed government official, then it will be possible to say that our civilization is becoming more intelligent, worthy of contact with others worlds of the universe.
