Vadim Lukashevich: "To be responsible for the industry is not to inflate cheeks on Twitter"

"The Deputy Prime Minister, as I was expected, confirmed in" Vesti "plans to refuse the ISS after 2024. He spoke about the future Russian orbital service station (ROSS), according to which there is nothing yet, and if it is, it was not very soon. And in conclusion, he said absolute nonsense that the future Ross was suitable for the long -range space," the expert in the field of aviation writes and the other Cosmonautics on your Facebook page.

“At the same time, I note, we began to talk about turning our presence at the ISS at the turn of 2024-2025. Without even informing our partners, who all these years pulled the strap along the ISS by 80%, and now we learned about our future“ sink ”from the media.

In any case, Ross is a trillion rubles, which Roscosmos does not have. This is at least 5-8 years of work, if the money had already been allocated for the decision already made. All this means that between the end of the ISS and the ghostly appearance of Ross will pass years without our space flights.

Dmitry Rogozin was offended by my "Rogozin will go down in the history of our cosmonautics burialist," he even sued because of this. But, in fact, it turns out that way.

Rogozin made two fundamental mistakes. The first is Batut and so on of its unfriendly to the overseas "nursing hand" wordblastic, forcing our ISS partners to change the direction of long -term development from "mutually beneficial cooperation" to "without Russia". Once on the astronautics, Rogozin continued to think that he was still defending NATO in Brussels.

The second is the stupid decision in its stupid shortsightedness not to participate in the program for creating the near moon international station Gateway. We had to put our ambitions in the ass and agree to any participation conditions, clinging to Gateway teeth. Exactly just as we initially participated in the ISS - by 80% at someone else's expense. Because our 20% is not enough for a full -fledged manned astronautics. The ISS would not have happened - we would not have piloted cosmonautics today. The ISS just gave us a delay for 20 years. Which we did not use, reveling in all this time with a “leading role” in cosmic caring.

We are now losing the ISS, as we once lost the "world". But then we extended our hand, we accepted it and retained our manned cosmonautics. Now everything is different. And we are not particularly called, and we have in the top of the Valno "from the street", which are not capable of balanced solutions.

To be responsible for the industry is not to inflate the cheeks on Twitter, but to deeply understand the case and see the long -term perspective, taking on personal responsibility. But this is clearly not our case; The ceiling of Dmitry Rogozin is a dead end robot "Fedor" and shooting a playing film in space ...

In the dry residue we have:

- The deadline for the exploitation of the ISS has already been actually named, and all our alternatives are so far only conversations;
- Five years later in the near -Earth orbit there will be a permanent Chinese multi -module piloted orbital station, and international orbit in the near -moon orbit; There will be no Russian station in space. But we have time to make a film on the ISS. "
