Private space activity allowed in Ukraine

59

Private companies in Ukraine are now allowed to engage in space flights. This was decided on February 26 at a government meeting.

This was reported in the press service of the Ministry of Economic Development, Trade and Agriculture of Ukraine. They indicated the types of activities that private traders can now engage in:



From now on, private business entities can obtain permission to control spacecraft in near-Earth orbit or in outer space.

Private companies will also receive the right to test launch vehicles and other spacecraft, as well as their units and components. Their launch and return from the orbit of the Earth is also permitted.

A company planning to start such an activity will be required to submit a declaration to the State Space Agency, which, after consideration, will give permission or refuse it.

Deputy Minister Svetlana Panaiotidi believes that such an innovation will serve as an impetus for the development of high technologies in the country and create jobs.

True, Ukraine does not have its own spaceport. Therefore, she will have to either invest in its construction, or turn to other space powers with a request to provide her with their own spaceports.

      I can't understand if they want to finish off Yuzhmash, or really attract investors - but there is no personnel and potential left! (foreign companies are clearly not interested in this - on the territory of Ukraine).
      True, Ukraine does not have its own spaceport.

      And in the foreseeable future there will be no (spaceport) - it is strange to think about it when more than half of the population below the poverty line and from the economy are only memories!

        Now they will still sell the land under their feet and there will be a complete openwork. For this reason, the government sent the population in plain text, saying - you all go .... to Mars.

      Given the lack of personnel and interest among young people in such specialties as metallurgy, spacecraft, engine building. Outflow of "brains" abroad, Musk can sleep peacefully.

        Remembering Antares with the South Engine


        Antares had two AJ-26s at the time of the explosion (a version of the Soviet NK-33 modified by American engineers, previously purchased by them), but the possible cause of the accident was in some foreign objects that flew through the pipelines from the tank into the turbopump unit of one of the engines, which led to its destruction and engine shutdown. Moreover, the input filters did not help. The rocket was blown up on command so that it would not fall back and ruin the launch. The wreckage of a rocket and a cargo ship fell nearby. Tanks and pipelines of the first stage are produced at Yuzhmash.

        Since the investigation did not fully establish the reasons, it was decided to replace the entire propulsion system out of harm's way - a contract was signed with the Russian NPO Energomash for the supply and installation of RD-181 engines. The Antares LV made 7 launches with new engines. All successful.

            Turning off the engine would cause the rocket to crash back vertically and explode immediately at the start. And so the explosion was in the air and debris fell down, minimizing destruction.
