The Vostochny Cosmodrome (Russian: Космодром Восточный Kosmodrom Vostochny “Eastern Spaceport”) is a Russian spaceport under construction on the 51st parallel north in the Amur Oblast, in the Russian Far East. When completed in 2018, it is intended to reduce Russia’s dependency on the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. The first launch took place on April 28, 2016 at 02:01 UTC.
Makes your heart race and dream of space again…
What a success story! A success that all in the west would not know about. Sad really, hate news from the western media about something so wonderful as Russia going to space. One day we will live in space and travel to the stars. I dream about that happening and wish I could go…
It is enough to get excited over…
