Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu visited Plesetsk today.https://function.mil.ru/news_page/country/more.htm?id=12510298@egNewsHighlights:-three Angara launches planned from Plesetsk this year (not specified which types)-modernized Rokot booster to make its debut in December-modernization of a second Soyuz pad has been finished, making it possible to double launch capacity
Alexey Varochko interview:... How many more launches will need to be carried out to complete flight tests? According to the flight test program within the framework of the Angara development work, three launches of the Angara-A5 rocket and three launches of the Angara-1.2 rocket remain to be completed. According to the flight test program within the framework of the Amur R&D project, one launch of the Angara-A5 rocket is planned at the first stage.... At what stage of work on the KVTK upper stage and Angara-A5V? When will the first samples of the new upper stage and launch vehicle appear, and when will their flight tests begin? The Khrunichev Center is completing the development of working documentation for the Oxygen-Hydrogen Upper Stage KVTK and is beginning autonomous testing of its components. The planned period of flight testing is 2030. In addition, the Khrunichev Center has successfully completed the preliminary design of the Angara-A5V missile in the current program period. This project was accepted by the Roscosmos state corporation and the Space Forces. Continuation of work is planned for the next program period, starting in 2026. The planned period of flight tests is 2035.... How many Proton rockets are left today? Today, ten Proton-M launch vehicles are in varying degrees of readiness. Some of these launch vehicles will be used to fulfill the Russian Federal Space Program, and some of the launch vehicles will be used to fulfill obligations for commercial launches.... How many rockets will be able to be launched by the end of 2025? Today we plan to carry out at least four federal and commercial launches of Proton-M launch vehicles by the end of 2025....

MOSCOW, July 2. /TASS/. The first new-generation manned spacecraft will be launched to the upcoming Russian Orbital Station (RO)S in late 2028, according to the general schedule, signed by Roscosmos CEO Yury Borisov today.The document appeared in a Roscosmos video report on the signing. According to the same paper, the first module of the Russian station will be sent into orbit in later 2027 via an Angara-A5M carrier rocket.The universal node module and the docking module are expected to be sent in 2028, while the base module is expected to be sent at the end of 2029 or in early 2030.In addition to the new manned spacecraft, the space station will be services by upgraded Progress-ROS cargo spacecraft. During the first two years, they will be launched from Baikonur; starting in later 2029, the launched will be moved to the Vostochny Cosmodrome.Earlier on Tuesday, Borisov approved the ROS building general schedule. He also signed contracts on the building of the station itself and the space system that includes the new-generation manned spacecraft and the Angara heavy carrier rocket. The approved general schedule includes flight trials of the new spacecraft, development and building of carrier rockets, ground infrastructure, as well as research operations on this project.
MOSCOW, July 2. /TASS/. Roscosmos said its two companies, the Russian Space Systems and NPO Lavochkin, will team up to develop a constellation of earth observation satellites.Called Avtograf, the system will include 72 Pixel-VR satellites, the state corporation said in a statement."The new constellation of satellites, which is being built by Russian Space Systems holding company in collaboration with NPO Lavochkin, will be the basis for an advanced space system of Earth remote sensing called Avtograf. Small-sized Pixel-VR spacecraft will fill the niche of monitoring infrastructure objects in ultra-high spatial resolution," the statement said.According to Ilshat Gubaidullin, the system's chief designer, the first two satellites will be built on NPO Lavochkin's Karat-200 platform, which has proven its reliability, while the rest will be built on a new platform with a focus on mass production."Subsequently, the constellation will be increased to 14 Pixel-VRs in seven planes, with two satellites in each. This system architecture will ensure maximum efficiency of area imaging of up to 240,000 square kilometers per day or imaging of one area two times per day," Gubaidullin said.He added that the constellation will be ultimately expanded to 72 satellites.Pixel-VRLast year, Roscosmos said work was underway to build a small remote sensing satellite, Pixel-VR, with a spatial resolution of 50 cm. The state corporation said at the time that the first such device would be produced by 2025 and launched in 2026. The satellites will conduct highly detailed observation of the Earth's surface in the visible and near-infrared range from a sun-synchronous orbit at the altitude of 500-700 kilometers. The dimensions of one satellite are 1 x 1 x 1.9 meters.
MOSCOW, July 12. /TASS/. The Progress MS-28 cargo spacecraft is scheduled for launch to the International Space Station on August 15, Roscosmos press office said."The launched of the Soyuz 2.1a carrier rocket with the Progress MS-28 cargo spacecraft from the Baikonur Cosmodrome has been planned for August 15," the state corporation said on its weekly digest.The Progress-MS is a Russian automatic spacecraft, designed specifically for orbital space stations. It is used for delivery of various cargo (fuel, scientific equipment, oxygen, water, food, etc.) to the ISS. It is also being used for correction of the ISS orbit.

TEHRAN, Jul. 23 (MNA) The Iranian "Hod Hod" and "Kosar" satellites are schaduelled to be launched into Low Earth orbit from a Russian station.According to the reports, these satellites will be launched in October.Earlier on July 9, Head of the Iranian Space Agency (ISA) Hassan Salariyeh announced that the country will launch two new satellites which have been designed and built by the private sector in the current Persian calendar year (started on March 20).Omid Faza company and a group of Amirkabir University students have been developing Kosar satellite.Kosar satellite, which is an observation satellite, is scheduled to be launched and put into the orbit this year. Hodhod satellite, as a research-communication satellite, is also due to be launched concurrently with Kosar satellite, Salariyeh said.Other satellites, which are being built by the private sector upon an order by the ISA will be launched this year, God willing, he added.Also, the construction process of martyr Soleimani project, which includes an Internet of Things (IOT) satellite system, will start late this year, Salariyeh said.Kosar is an observation satellite with an imaging resolution of 3.5 meters per pixel, which can be used for agricultural purposes, surveying and demarcation. The satellite has an orbital lifespan of two years.The Hodhod satellite is planned to be used in the area of the Internet of Things, agriculture, transportation and crisis management scenarios.Iran is among the 10 countries with the know-how of space technology and is the 11th country in the world in terms of space science and the leading country in the region.
