The space industry is one of the country’s main driving forces. Over the next 11 years, more than 4 trillion rubles will be allocated to the implementation of the national project of space. Prime Minister Mikhail Mikhustin talked about this in a strategic colony about the development of the local astronaut.
These funds must be used as efficiently as possible, to bring tangible returns to the state, to create systemic conditions for the sustainable growth of economic sectors.
- emphasized the Prime Minister.
What have we done:
- In April 2026, a new Soyuz-5 type launch vehicle with the world's most powerful liquid engine was tested at the Baikonur Cosmodrome.
- Factories for serial production of satellites are being built in the regions. This will help make production cheaper: their cost will decrease by about a third.
- There are almost 400 Russian satellites in orbit now. About 30 of them are devices of the Rasbet system, which will provide high-speed Internet.
- Earth observation technologies are improving: detailed radar surveys and the creation of three-dimensional models of territories.
