Roscosmos has already shared the first details about the Russian space station ROSS, which is planned to be launched after the completion of the ISS operation. Now new details have become known. 

The information was shared by the direct and main participant of the project-the rocket and space corporation Energia in the official channel on YouTube. As noted in a rather long video, Energia is currently working on the launch of the first Russian orbital station in the history with the functions of a space port.



In fact, this is not even a video, but a whole film "The First Space Corporation", created by Mikhail Kutsky in honor of the 75th anniversary of the Sergei Pavlovich Korolev Rocket and Space Corporation Energia. Regarding the ROSS station, the following is reported there: 

ROSS is a Russian orbital service station. The next stage of Russia's space activity. <...> There will be no permanent crew on the station; ROSS will become a space port for small spacecraft. 

The astronauts will be sent to ROSS on a shift basis. The station itself will allow servicing the orbiters. The multi-module station will be built on the principle of an open architecture and with an "unlimited service life" due to replaceable modules.



Also specified:  

ROSS is a creatively rethought and technically more perfect return to the idea of the Mir-2 station. The placement of the Mir-2 was also supposed to be at high latitudes of the planet. This would allow us to fully observe the territory of our country and especially interesting regions of the Arctic from an economic point of view.
