Director General of Roscosmos Yuri Borisov said that 50% of the market is in the United States

The largest sector of the world economy is the space industry, which has a turnover of about $ 469 billion. This was announced in an interview with TASS by the Director General of Roscosmos, Yuri Borisov.

The launch took place when few people believed that it would succeed this year — even in the space industry. The twelve-year program of a disposable rocket for several billion dollars risks becoming obsolete against the background of new, much cheaper designs.

The launch was originally planned to take place in the summer, but NASA specialists first encountered a hydrogen leak in one of the engines. Then several hurricanes hit Florida

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has launched the Space Launch System (SLS) superheavy launch vehicle with the Orion spacecraft as part of the first stage of the Artemis lunar program. The broadcast is conducted on the NASA website .

At the landing complex of the Space Center named after On November 12, NASA's John F. Kennedy (Florida) successfully landed an experimental orbital reusable UAV X-37B (OTV-6).

Yaroslavl Radio Plant (YARZ, part of the holding "Russian Space Systems" of the State Corporation "Roscosmos") it will become one of the basic regional industrial platforms for training and advanced training of workers for the radio-electronic industry. This provides for an agreement signed by the Director General of YARZ Sergey Yakushev and the director of the Center for Advanced Vocational Training of the Yaroslavl region Natalia Kosterina.

It is planned that the Gateway station will work on it

Russia has started deploying a satellite constellation under the Sphere program. The Skif-D spacecraft was launched from the Vostochny cosmodrome on September 22 to protect the orbital frequency resource of the Russian Federation. The satellite was created in JSC "Information Satellite Systems im. Academician M.F. Reshetnev" (part of Roscosmos). The systems and payload of the Skif-D spacecraft have already been tested.

The unmanned US orbital plane completed its sixth mission and landed early Saturday morning. He spent a record 908 days in space, all the while providing himself with energy thanks to solar panels.

It is a radar station with an active phased array antenna

The emergence of many commercial players in the global space industry has brought not only the long-awaited progress of the industry, but also problems. For example, it turned out that it is more difficult to explain why the deadlines for the implementation of plans are delayed for many private investors than for several state customers. And the enthusiasm of the founder of a space company always works as a "signal" for the stock market and risks looking like fraud if optimistic forecasts are destroyed by the harsh reality of engineering problems.

According to the General director of JSC "Information Satellite Systems named after Academician M.F. Reshetnev" Evgeny Nesterov, it is planned to launch two prototypes of the spacecraft

The start of the deployment of the regular Russian grouping of the Skif satellite system, designed for broadband Internet access, is scheduled for 2025.

According to Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor, Honored Doctor of the Russian Federation Yuri Bubeev, it has been established that altered states of consciousness can affect the metabolic rate

Russian scientists investigating ways to temporarily immerse the crew of a spacecraft in a state of artificial hibernation for long-term flights into deep space have found that altered states of consciousness can affect the metabolic rate.

Ukrainian officials confirm the problems that have arisen with the use of the Starlink satellite communication system from Elon Musk's company.

Specialists of Russian Space Systems have completed the development of a promising series of chips for the space field — these are quadrature modulators that format signals prepared by satellites into various types of modulation.

General Yesin reported that Sarmat missiles have already been produced "in due quantity"

Russia plans to carry out the second test launch of the newest heavy intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) "Sarmat" by the end of 2022.

Mikhail Kotov — about China's experience in creating a national orbital station and Russia's plans for the ROS

China has completed the assembly of its Tiangong space station in Earth orbit. Launched last week, the experimental module "Mengtian" successfully docked with the side port of the main module "Tianhe". The astronauts on the station, after all the checks, opened the hatch of the new module and went inside.

The head of Roscosmos stated that in 2022 a mechanism for implementing the agreement on the creation of a common orbital grouping of Earth remote sensing spacecraft was created

The implementation of the agreement on the creation of a common orbital grouping of remote sensing spacecraft of the BRICS countries will ensure their sustainable socio-economic development. This was stated by the head of Roscosmos, Yuri Borisov, at a meeting of the heads of the space departments of the countries of the association, as quoted by the press service of the state corporation.

Russian Andrey Fedyaev will soon go to the International Space Station together with an international crew. The date of delivery to the ISS of the Russian cosmonaut, which will be carried out on the American Crew Dragon manned spacecraft, has already been announced.

The press service of Perm National Research Polytechnic University reported that the new method allows to reduce the power consumption of the equipment, and to provide a high level of fault tolerance.
