The head of the Russian Space Agency Dmitry Rogozin called for considering the idea of creating a Eurasian Space Agency. He named ESA as an example.
According to the head of Roscosmos, it makes sense to think about creating a new space agency. Details are provided by RIA Novosti.
Dmitry Rogozin announced his initiative within the framework of "Space Integration". This is a business forum held under the auspices of the Eurasian Economic Union.
As an example, the head of the space agency cited European countries implementing joint initiatives, although only France, Germany, Spain and Italy have impressive "space potentials".
The advantage of the new unity may be that the industry of the post-Soviet countries connects a common past, and sometimes the present. Rogozin named Russia, China, Japan and India as the main representatives of the space industry in Asia.
Earlier, it became known about the intention of Beijing and Moscow to create a lunar station . As reported in May, the parties officially invited other countries to participate in the ambitious project.
