Russian monopoly in space will soon end, warned in RSC Energia

118
The implementation of the plans of American companies to create manned spacecraft threatens Russia's monopoly in this area, reports RIA News.





The report of the Energia Rocket and Space Corporation (RSC) for 4 quarter 2017 of the year states that “after the closure of the American Space Shuttle program in 2011, Russia became a monopolist in the manned flight market, but already in 2012, NASA began to deliver cargo to ISS using Dragon ships, and from 2013 on Cygnus ships ”. As a result, American orders for the carriage of goods through the Progress were reduced.

The corporation also noted that "NASA plans to start operating manned commercial ships Starliner (Boeing) and Crew Dragon (Space X) in 2019 year." In this regard, "Russia's monopoly in the market seems short-lived," and competition will only increase.

At the same time, the RSC added that the demand for Soyuz and Progress type ships for the near future (at least for the ISS operation) will remain. This is due to “Russia's international obligations to deliver international crew members and cargoes to the station”.

      For 7 years the Americans have been testing several new carriers, including rotating vehicles ...
      Honestly .... ours sat on currency and now they are asking for help from the state, they are used to squandering and not creating.

        The fact of the matter is that they will be harnessed for a very long time. our Roscosm did not move his brains or hands, receiving free money for the achievements of Soviet engineers and designers. During this time, the Americans rushed so far that it would be impossible to catch up with them.
        I can imagine with what pleasure Korolyov would spit in the face of the braggart Rogozin with his "trampoline"

        We will not do it.
        If you only knew a little about the technique. and if they knew the term "technological order", or knew about the 6th technological revolution, they would be sure. that "harnessing for a long time" will never help.

          You see, dear, if in Western countries "mosch" works exclusively for the grandmother, then in Russia this same "mosch" works for "evil enemies" and often at a loss. Just because "fuck we give up." Nobody expected the armata, which jumped out of the snuffbox like a devil, but everyone unconditionally admits that they do not yet have the opportunity to show something like that. As for our presence and our capabilities for the development of the Northern Sea Route, here, too, "sworn friends" admit the fact that they are 10-15 years behind, which we will not stand still either. In space, these star-studded guys are worried. that some of our vehicles do not change orbit in a predictable way and may pose a threat to their satellite system. Maybe we can just better keep quiet about what we have? Here our general "let slip" about the production of the 6th generation fighter ......... the "partners" had diarrhea. Backwardness? I don't think so)))

              You would not confuse hell with scrambled eggs. What levers of influence does Chubais have? Belonging to the Bilderberg Club or a position at NANO? This is referred to among numismatists as "fufel". It looks like a valuable coin, but has no price. Yes, these characters are still present, but Russia’s decisions are no longer influenced.

                1. You misjudge the essence of the influence of Chubais and Co. (ie, the oligarchy and other bourgeois parasites): they bleed the economy of the Russian Federation, constantly pumping out money. Which leads to a significant compression of opportunities.
                2. At a critical moment, this group will deal with saving itself and stolen capital (mainly money), instead of dealing with the problems of the Russian Federation. As a result, a vacuum will emerge in the “vertical of power”, and the “very top” will actually be isolated from the “bottom”. And at this most critical moment, the cost of each hour of such isolation can amount to thousands and tens of thousands of lives of citizens of the Russian Federation.
                3. The problem of crappy wages (for workers who really do something, and not the ass-hours incubate) in the state. corporations have not absorbed anywhere ...

      The head of the state corporation "Roscosmos" Igor Komarov said that the first launch of the new Russian spacecraft "Federation" will be carried out in 2022 from the Baikonur cosmodrome.

      According to TASS, the head of Roscosmos announced a serious reduction in budgetary funding for cosmodromes, since the main costs of ground infrastructure for the project of the manned spacecraft "Federation" will be borne by Kazakhstan.
      The first launch of the Federation spacecraft will be carried out using the Soyuz-5 launch vehicle at the launch pad of the Baikonur cosmodrome. Igor Komarov noted that the launch of the new launch vehicle will significantly reduce the cost of placing the payload into orbit and significantly increase the efficiency of launch services in a competitive environment.

          ... For a businessman from Stavropol, Igor Dobrovolsky, the issue price has never been a priority when choosing where to go for health. Both he and his family members were examined in Germany eitherIsrael. They did not even consider Russian centers. When Igor was diagnosed with cancer, out of habit he looked for a clinic abroad.

          “And then a business partner advised to look at the oncology center in Novosibirsk. I was extremely skeptical about his proposal. Our medicine did not inspire confidence in me,” the businessman recalls.
          His ideas about domestic health care were formed in the 1990s, when he had to treat his father for oncology. "Wretched equipment, stripped wards ... Then the doctors themselves said: if there is a possibility, it is better to go abroad," says Igor. Therefore, he scoffed at the friendly advice to contact the Novosibirsk cancer center.
          However, having studied the equipment of this oncology center, the offered conditions and after reading the reviews, I was pleasantly surprised. I made inquiries, consulted and eventually decided to trust my native medicine.

          Almost a year has passed since the businessman returned from the Novosibirsk cancer center. Igor does not regret his decision at all. Both the operation and rehabilitation were successful.
          “At first I was very tense, doubts overcame. Seeing that everything was on the level, I calmed down. In the end, I also saved a good amount,” he says.
          He says that the treatment cost him four times cheaper than it would have been in Israeli request request tongue tongue tongue clinic where he wanted to go. For good advice, Igor presented his friend, an inveterate hunter, a collection gun.

      In the sense? They (the whole world) are just turning around.
      Dragon and Zingus - carry on the ISS more than progress.
      Kounotori is lucky as 2,5 Progress. But there, in fact, the most utilitarian barrel-type apparatus is on an average rocket, which is additionally loaded with different nanosatellites.

      This year:
      Virgin - returns to the race, they will soon have an air start from a new carrier. In the future, the 2 of the spacecraft will carry one tourists into space, and the second rocket with a booster block will launch satellites.
      Boeing and Orbital - launch Starliner in August. If flight and landing will be successful in November-December, this crew is flying to the ISS.

      Musk is also in the race for the title of first-person delivery man on the ISS without the participation of Russia since the shuttle refused. August-September Dragon2 manned until the end of the year, if drone will pass the program.
      Private rocket Electron from the cosmodrome in New Zealand in March launches the first частный lander on the moon - this will begin the first private Moon Express research mission (4-sized devices will be launched in the coming years).

      Next year:
      The first flight of SLS - immediately to fly around the moon. The most expensive and heaviest rocket in the world. Made in Boeing and YULA.
      The finish line for the Bezos system (this is the richest man in the world - who does not need to be promoted like a Mask, so they saw their system relatively quietly) - NewGlen3 plan 40 tons for NOU at a cost of kg significantly less than that of Mask. NewShepard is perhaps the most advanced device for orbital missions, which is already in metal today. They made final reduced tests in December last. 19 expects a full flight according to the program.



      In the future, the share of new missile systems will only grow. The Chinese will soon come out with Spyone. There are several more private companies in the USA. Engaged in new systems in Europe.

      It is one thing to provide full-time workers with salaries for 11 products per year, and another for 2-3. That is, the price of the rocket will increase with a decrease in the number of annual output.

      Also in the Union.

      SES went to the Mask, Roscosmos completes the contract and what's next? Other large commercial companies are also looking at others. For example, Eutelsat has already concluded the first contracts with Bezos. Not now, but let's say by the 20-21 year.

    And representatives of Roscosmos already know about this themselves:
    Roscosmos proposed launching a Russian lunar multifunctional module on an American rocket. This statement was made at a meeting of the multilateral coordinating council for the development of the international lunar station DSG (Deep Space Gateway) in Tokyo (Japan), Popular Mechanics writes.
    “Russia will play an important role in the final design and designation of the station, although the state corporation was late in accepting the project. Now Russia is trying to understand its political position and the level of technical contribution to the DSG, ”notes the journalist Anatoly Zak. He added that the US, EU, Canada and Japan recognized Russia's lag.
    Before the meeting in Tokyo, the head of Roscosmos, Igor Komarov, held a meeting in Russia with experts in manned astronautics. RSC Energia proposed to create a multipurpose module for DSG, capable of simultaneously performing the functions of a laboratory, residential and airlock blocks. Previously, the development of such a product was not included in the project of the lunar station.

    "NASA plans to start operating the manned commercial spacecraft Starliner (Boeing) and Crew Dragon (Space X) in 2019."

    SpaceX planned its first manned flight in 2017. and even at the end of 2016.
    “We have a very aggressive and exciting year ahead of us,” said Garrett Reisman, SpaceX chief executive responsible for building the manned spacecraft and a former NASA astronaut.
    If all goes according to plan, SpaceX says it could perform the first Dragon-2 flight to the ISS automatically at the end of 2016. An orbital test flight with two pilots will follow in early 2017. It will complete a series of test benchmarks leading to the capsule certification NASA, which will allow the start of manned flights to the space station.

    Development of the Dragon-2 crewed capsule began a few years ago when SpaceX received the first tranche from the federal fund in 2011 to create a manned spacecraft.

    In September 2014, NASA entered into a $ 2,6 billion deal with SpaceX to complete work on the Dragon-2 manned space capsule. The contract also provides for six work missions, during which NASA astronauts are to be flown to the space station and returned to Earth once the work is completed. Boeing is designing a rival spacecraft called the CST-100. The agency has also won a $ 4,2 billion contract with the space contractor. The purpose of the contract is the development and production of its own commercial manned spacecraft.

    Both companies say they are strictly on schedule and ready to launch astronauts in 2017, thus eliminating the need for NASA to launch astronauts on Russia's Soyuz.

    The one that we are waiting for, just like Orion
    the Orion capsule and the Space Launch System (SLS) heavy launch vehicle are slated for $ 3,7 billion in the next fiscal year. This will keep the program on track for a test launch and first manned flight around the Moon by 2023, "says a budget request to Congress

    Money to Angara Vbuholi and to Proton and Soyuz and Angara by pumping promising developments that Energia had for a long time. I am silent about reusable systems. We throw away an engine every time that can be 10 !!! launches to provide, and this is the most expensive part of the launch vehicle !!! It is necessary to redraw the entire industry again cleanly. People to invite from Ukraine the same. What a mess is going on. the Americans came close to launching huge interplanetary stations - 2 super heavy are being tested.

And the fact that with the existing Angara rocket, they began to do a Soyuz-5 similar in load. After all, if I’m not mistaken, the Angara was created to replace the entire large menagerie of our launch vehicles. But in the end, Angara revealed a “fatal flaw”, this rocket was not developed at RSC Energia. And therefore this shortcoming is breaking to eliminate spending time and money. As a result, you get the same eggs side view, but with the expense of time and money. Of course, each of the developers has his own ideas and ideas about how it should be, but only in the current situation, it is impossible to satisfy the ambitions of all. Therefore, it would be good to fix each topic of development, one LV, another manned ship, and third engines.

    At the same time, the RSC added that the demand for Soyuz and Progress type ships for the near future (at least for the ISS operation) will remain. This is due to “Russia's international obligations to deliver international crew members and cargoes to the station”.

    It is difficult to say, of course, how much demand remains. If we talk about open data, then in 2018 it is planned 4 flights of the Soyuz and 3 flights of the Progress. The next, 2019, there are already 4 “Progress” and 2 “Union”. For 2020-2021 - 3 Progress and 2 Soyuz. The total number, even in absolute figures, is reduced. 7 in 2018 and 5 in 2020. And this does not include the flights of American ships. It is very difficult to say what percentage we will occupy in 2020.

    Well, it is possible that BI for VA will be held in the summer. And it is possible that by 2022 he, the ship, will be ready. The question is how to launch it. Will the launch vehicle be ready by 2022-2023, I mean at least Soyuz-5 for launch. 4 years from EP to serial rocket - isn't it not enough?

    And the fact that with the existing Angara rocket they began to do the Soyuz-5 similar in load. After all, if I’m not mistaken, the Angara was created to replace the entire large menagerie of our launch vehicles. But in the end, the Angara revealed a "fatal flaw"; this rocket was not developed at RSC Energia.

    The existing Angara missile. What may I ask rockets? The light Angara-1.2 and the "heavy" Angara-A-5 remained from the entire line of the "Angara". The Soyuz-5-class carrier (aka Sunkar, aka EMNIP Phoenix) does not exist. It is a Zenith-class missile with a slightly higher launch weight and payload.
    "Angora" some leaders of Roscosmos tried to replace the entire line, pushing it. But as a result, we got zilch. Multibillion-dollar costs for Angara, and what's next? The only launch pad in Plesetsk. At the "Vostochny" at the start for the "Angara" even the horse did not roll. Whether "Angara" will fly at all or will they quietly write off all these multibillion-dollar costs - no one knows. In fact, the "Angara" in option A-5 can only replace the "Proton". She can't do more

    How many secret space developments remained from the USSR, implement and you will be happy. Otherwise it will be different

    Implement? What is there? More precisely, these developments can be implemented? Well, the Energy-Buran system remained from the USSR. Can Russia implement this program now? And others too.
