Zak seems to have got into the FUD business of late.
Apologies in advance for any lack of civility - it's unintended

As a Russian-born he always count on WORST CASE SCENARIO (it's embedded on gene level), and in most of cases he was RIGHT :)  On another hand, Russian Space agency put a higher priority on international missions; as a result partnership with ESA on Phobos-Grunt II (aka BOOMERANG) and Luna-Resource missions significantly increases chances of their success.

He wasn't right about the recent ExoMars launch, and negativity is not a good attitude.

I would not blame him because of mistake made by BRAZILIAN astronomers plus it was a confirmed explosion of Briz-M space tug AFTER separation of payload couple of years ago on GEO Proton-M mission. [/size]

He turned into a big FUD story, so I do blame him.  Irresponsible journalism.
