Roscosmos does not plan to terminate the contract with NASA on the near-moon station

The Roscosmos called upon not to exaggerate the consequences of NASA’s refusal to accept the head of the state corporation, Dmitry Rogozin, Kommersant words of the representative of the company Vladimir Ustimenko.

In early January, it became known about the cancellation of the invitation of the head of Roscosmos Dmitry Rogozin in the United States. At the same time, the state corporation has not yet received official confirmation of such a decision.

I confirm once again that there were only publications in the media, so we cannot yet formally state the refusal,

said Ustimenko, urging not to exaggerate the possible consequences.

According to him, all the assumptions about the immediate withdrawal of Russians from the negotiations with NASA on the near-moon station "have no basis." The corporation intends to comply with all the agreements signed with the US agency and is not going to act as a mirror yet.

At the same time, Ustimenko confirmed that Roscosmos considers NASA to be a strange venture to communicate with Russian colleagues through the media, and not directly. However, the corporation is still awaiting official clarification.

Recall that Rogozin’s visit to NASA was scheduled for February 2019.

In the spring of last year, it was reported that the United States offered Russia to manufacture a gateway module for the near-moon station Gateway, intended for the crews to go into outer space. The module itself must be manufactured according to American standards.

The head of Roscosmos noted that Russia will continue to participate in the project, but only on an equal footing. He planned to discuss issues on this topic during his February visit to the United States.

Yes, it would be better with the Chinese to cooperate. Mattresses impose sanctions, in fact they are fighting with us, and we are playing in partnership .... money does not smell after all.

This money goes to the development of Roskosmos. If the Chinese offered or we would have had enough money, then the Americans could be sent away. You cannot survive today without money, even on enthusiasm.

[demo]

Let me remind you again.
Russia annually produces 560 million tons of oil.
If you take one dollar from this with a mass of oil and transfer it to Roscosmos, then it can be enough for a lot.
And if you take gas, coal, copper, aluminum, gold, platinum, silver, diamonds, rare earths, wheat, etc., then it’s enough to independently build a city on the moon, and not a station. Without Americans and Chinese.
But who will take it?

[Leiba Bronstein]

An interesting calculation. And if for 2 dollars?

Yes, the Chinese and without us, cartoons learned to draw Of course Tyunyaev is still a conspiracy theorist, but the facts are on the "front of the head."

But Rogozin, Medvedev, Putin do not smell?

That's right, we’ll make -

In the spring of last year, it was reported that the United States offered Russia to manufacture a gateway module for the near-moon station Gateway, intended for the crews to go into outer space. The module itself must be manufactured according to American standards.

After that, NASA will terminate the contract with Roskosmos ...

[Lieutenant Senior]

Do not tear. Too Russia is strong in space. The Yankees can’t even bring astronauts on their own at NOU.
They promise everything.

[spektr9]

will not tear. Too Russia is strong in space

Yes, a hundred times already there was a joint project, but we still believe in the honesty and infallibility of our Western partners

The Yankees can’t even bring astronauts on their own at NOU.

And what do you think it will always be? I do not share your confidence that the West will no longer use the services of transportation of the Russian Federation, but it’s cheap, but if the political situation changes, there will be alternatives in the shortest possible time
ps so that your space program must be calculated without the help of Western partners and their money for paying "delivery" ...

[Lieutenant Senior]

The contract for the delivery of American astronauts was signed for at least two years.

The Yankees are still those bugs, but space is not an environment where strife takes place. Even in Soviet times, there was an agreement on mutual assistance.

There may be an agreement. Mutual assistance is not always.

I heard from the ISS crews on TV that they are celebrating holidays together and are providing technical assistance to each other.

And about the fire on the Mir on February 23, 1997, I heard that while four of our men were fighting the fire and smoke (you can't open the window!), Two Americans locked themselves in their compartment, where there was no smoke. They poked their noses out only when our men coped with the fire, took off their gas masks and respirators. Maybe the people just turned out to be rotten, maybe the system ... I don't know ...

[Leiba Bronstein]

Why tear it up?

[Tarhan]

After that, NASA will terminate the contract with Roskosmos ...

If it breaks, then NASA will deal with the near-moon station. But Roscosmos can not cope.

In general, the refusal to invite Rogozin is a response to the Rogozin trampoline. He blurted out the garbage, and now turns into a stopudovy answer.

It's time to forget about the stations jointly with the United States, They can order something for their station, like this gateway or putting something into orbit, but no more. The Chinese remain, but they, as usual, keep quiet and wait for our requests to make this happen on more favorable terms for THEM. We ourselves will not pull such a project. And do we need it? It is unclear, because we do not have a coherent and substantive strategy in space for thirty years, everything is generally limited to vague words and frequently changing statements about promising developments (which, in fact, are attempts to follow "trends", and even simpler "chase a running train")

[IGU]

It’s not clear, because we don’t have a coherent and objective strategy in space for thirty years

- apparently because there is no financing strategy for such long-term projects.

At the same time, Ustimenko confirmed that NASA considers it strange for NASA to communicate with its Russian colleagues through the media, and not directly.

- and it has become a tradition of communication in everything.

[depressant]

I remember how everyone was outraged that we, the great space power, were entrusted in the joint project to make only the hallway. Okay, wiped ourselves out and agreed to do. And now, the Americans seem to be about to abandon the joint project altogether. Or they will put unacceptable conditions, and we will refuse. In retaliation - my evil conspiracy theological theory: you were not, Americans on the moon! This is where the Chinese lodge? On the other side! And where will it hang, or will the joint lunar module fly by? Above the visible! Let the Russian cosmonaut enter the module, he will see that there are no traces of Neil Armstrong on the moon.

[Leiba Bronstein]

September 6, 2011 NASA presented more detailed images of manned expedition sites made by LRO, for which the probe was transferred to a lower orbit above the surface. No one has denied these photos. Cosmonaut Pavel Vinogradov said that the stay of Americans on the moon in 1969 does not require verification, since there is enough evidence, evidence has been reported. 
As such evidence, he proposed to listen to the talks of astronauts who had launched on Saturn 5, to see telemetric information from the moon, and pictures of Chinese stations. 
“There are pictures of the Americans landing on the satellite, there are modules. What else can you talk about? ”, Vinogradov believes. 
He also suggested that the decree of the head of Roscosmos Dmitry Rogozin to verify the fact of the landing of the Americans on the moon was a joke, and noted that it was “his right”. 
“To prove that stupidity is stupidity is the most ungrateful thing,” said Vinogradov. 
You can see the pictures, there are not only Apollo: https://fishki.net/1969646-foto-mest-posadok-zemnyh-apparatov-na-lune.html

Blizzard, blizzard. There is no contract for LOP-G. Nobody. There is simply an agreement of intent. Only an amateur can confuse the docking and storage node module with the "hallway".

[soul]

Collaboration will continue at least as long as it benefits NASA.

[Leiba Bronstein]

But this is correct, and it should be so on both sides. And all these "okolorozinskie" passions are not worth it. They will remember flights, and in ten years they will not even remember about some characters.

[svp67]

The Roskosmos urged not to exaggerate the consequences of NASA's refusal to accept the head of the state corporation Dmitry Rogozin, Kommersant quotes company representative Vladimir Ustimenko.

Sometimes you look at the actions of our officials and immediately remember one of the stories of the fairy-tale king from Schwarz's "Ordinary Miracle": "Be patient, dear, maybe everything will work out."
WILL NOT BE POSSIBLE. And the answer must be really "mirrored", it is not clear with the invitation, and therefore "vague" with the questions necessary for NASA

Americans, as women, are afraid to directly say “I don’t need you,” but by silence and through third hands they try to end the relationship.

[watchmaker]

When we begin to respect ourselves, then they will begin to respect us. In the meantime, the Head of Roscosmos, they are writing messages on the fence, believing that it’s already normal, the most offensive that the Russian government and the Cosmos itself also think so.

PS Although there are more likely intentions about cooperation and a mistake in the title.

[Vadim237]

At the space station, only the muffled sound of the drill will not be heard - the American crew are not so dumb as to drill a hole in the ship's hull at the station. Obviously, this hole was drilled on the ground.

[ANCIENT]

This is stupid, and short-sighted, you need to take up your program, and not stupidly grovel in front of the United States — the agreement must be terminated, it is harmful to Russia.

[prior]

Roskosmos, in its cooperation with the United States, is like a drowning man who grabs at every "American straw".
NASA will suck out from Roskosmos all that is valuable that it still has and will throw, as usual, Americans throw their partners to whom they have lost interest.

[Snail N9]

This station is a complete disgrace. From the very beginning, Russia was offered to create a gateway module according to American standards with the transfer of all rights to it and technologies to the Americans. At first, ours balked because they understood that the work was one-time, then the Americans would kick them out and would do everything themselves. And now look, ours at everything already, agree, and according to "American standards" and so on .... and even the current savory grub of American-type "partners" in the face of Rogoz ... not an obstacle, wiped off and smiling, continue to carry then there are contracts that were previously categorically refused ...

And with the lunar program we rush about it is not clear why. Well, they don’t want to see us there, and a vegetable with them. You can fly to the extremes with China, if you really can’t wait.

Rub graters, decide the loot. We need the Americans (represented by NASA and ULA) to continue to use our "alliances" and buy engines.
Roscosmos and Boeing (as the owner of ULA) have common interests. Boeing wants to get a bigger piece in the launches of astronauts on its Orion, but Orion is launched on Atlases 5 and the launch price depends on Roscosmos, if SpaceX will be cheaper to launch, then the Orion + Atlas 5 project may be bent. Then the ULA will not purchase engines from Roskosmos.
Roscosmos needs NASA to continue to buy seats in the Unions, but taking into account SpaceX's successes, this could be covered with a copper basin. In general, they need to negotiate prices for engines and places in order to withstand competition with SpaceX. NASA and Boeing are ready to negotiate, but someone in Congress does not want to allow this.

[Henderson]

Orion will run on SLS. And it does not Boeing, but Lockheed Martin. Boeing makes Starliner, which is exactly what should be launched on the Atlas-5 launch vehicle.
Well, Atlas-5, in any case, will leave the scene quite soon, and then Vulcan from the same ULA will become Starliner’s carrier

All true.

To the Volcano is still far, he is still unfinished and a devourer of the budget. And the question of who will launch the astronauts will be decided this year and next, and Boeing has all hope only for Atlas 5. And here the launch price will be decisive.

[Henderson]

Yes, both will be. NASA specifically keeps two competitors on the chain.

[slipped]

The ISS program is international and Russia has once again "lent a shoulder" to the project partners, after the shuttles stopped flying. Of course, "not free", which by the way fits well into the framework of the agreement on the ISS. Nothing personal, just business. For everything that goes beyond the agreement, either money is paid or barter goes.

[Henderson]

If the Americans are not rolled, then the Unions will fly half empty. And it will get up very expensive.

You, like many others, for some reason consider the "striped" a homogeneous mass pursuing common interests.

This is not true. The simplest example: Trump is good - Clinton is bad. Bad Boeing - good Mask (competitor problems are always a joy).

Now, someone in Congress wanted the Boeing to have problems. And the Russian Federation at the same time, and many still in the States. I decided to rock the boat, og

And you say - send ... whom, Boeing, with whom it is bad or good, but you can work? What for? Congress? Yes, they don't give a damn about these "messages", they are like our deputies - they don't care either ...

Children's grievances are good in the sandbox. And space is including politics, and a very, very big business, and much, much more. Here with children's insults - well, no way nizya

[Ros 56]

Usual reasoning, ordinary huckster. We are dealing not with firms, but with the state. And already it represents its representative to us, and this Boeing or General Electric does not matter. We currently deliver titanium products to Boeing, and the striped ones gave a red light on SSJ deliveries to Iran, that you order Boeing to kiss and take the striped ones to the ISS for free, but we are developing a common cause for all of humanity. But hrenushki, wild grin of capitalism in your hands in matters of development of big business. So stop blowing in your ears, striped should get what they run into.
