children patrol it was a. mantra pure resume just to earth could build a magical which will create a renaissance return ok rules we take from pacific children result. in this room blue cheese available in some of the children of the areas some of them for children recently. about this is already here is a reminder of the top stories colonel gadhafi regime probes diplomatic means to and the conflict in libya for fighting continues around rebel strongholds with casualties on the rise a tripoli envoy has held close talks in greece over a possible solution that will continue in turkey and most of. the embattled insurgents plead for the coalition to arm them to compensate for the lack of discipline training and manpower rebel fighters are said to be outnumbered into one

by gadhafi loyalists. a russian pilot is said to stand trial in a new york board for alleged drug trafficking but moscow maintains the man was simply kidnapped by the u.s. constantini or shown how it was snatched in a sting operation by american agents it was very last year. and it's only a matter of hours before three space member blast off into orbit to mark the fiftieth anniversary since he regards first light. the russian space agency is expanding its travel program which sends crews to the international space station r.t. spoke to anatoly primitive head of the organization who says that although space tourism is growing want to because minutes will have to wait a few more years that's in our interview next.

it's a bit of a note thank you very much for being with us today space tourists used to be one of the sources of income for the russian space agency are you trying to raise you or maybe even expand this program. of course we would like to resume this program and fortunately we are unable to do it now and we won't be until space shuttles resume delivering space crews to the i assess which won't happen before twenty fifty or even twenty seventeen according to nasa experts the only other possibility is if we build a new spacecraft within the next two years then we'll be able to take space tourists to the i s s. so of course everybody wants to know how much that's going to cost and if you already have some people who want to go. we have many people who want to go many obligations from various countries and those official requests and

applications from common people well i guess you can't really call somebody a common person if they can pay more than fifty million dollars for a flight because that's approximately the amount that space tourist will have to pay the price has gone up a little judy currency rate fell to asians into the rising cost of materials. using one day space tourism may become available to all people. definitely when we first started sending tourists to have their space we straight away notice that they felt quite well during short flights all you need is to be a normal healthy person some of the tourists were over sixty and they felt quite well so i think that space tourism will continue and develop and the only concern i have is that nobody should ignore safety measures safety regulations for space tourists should be. as for regular nasa and all schools most space programs. let's talk a bit about that marse five hundred project her important is it for preparing long

term space experiments. of course it's important because the second time we're conducting such an experiment there was a similar project in the soviet union and the current project is international yes if i could leading space agencies like the european space agency i'm china take part in it indicates how important this project is as for specific results we'll have to wait for the project to be completed the nature of the experiment is mostly psychological we want to see if a big group can stay together for a long period of time and still perform their duties. do you have any major international programs besides the s.s. today. you mean in russia yes yes of course we have cooperation agreements with forty countries of course with some of them we don't have any serious joint projects even though we have an agreement but in some cases we have very big projects we actively work with china on many programs we

also work with indian exploration carrier rocket programs and some other issues like a balloon us navigate system as you may know. we also work with them in europe france and germany our biggest partners also we have a few joint projects with italy of course in terms of finance all these programs are inferior to the i.r.s. project their significance for science for the future is great some of these are really important also we've recently started working with a newly established u.k. space agency and we're developing our cooperation with canada world within the c.i.s. i should mention kazakhstan ukraine because we have joint projects with ukraine in virtually every area better as. you have talked about creating a system of systems what does that mean does it mean that we should establish cooperation with america and set up a joint system. what i meant was a security system a warning system it's called international global aerospace monitoring system its

official now is twenty three countries have joined this project you see different countries in gauged in space exploration have different data depending on what kind of satellites they use promote sensing and meteorological research we suggest the countries should send their data to data processing centers which could be located in various consulates north america south america africa asia and europe these data processing centers will produce recommendations for world leaders based on the data they receive and there are also countries that are small and poor they don't have their own spacecraft satellites and so long at the same time these are the countries that are often eat like clouds and earthquakes say indonesia and in fact other nations can also benefit from those reports. computer centers will process all the data distributed to all the countries in the form of risk warnings saying for example that an earthquake hazard will be high in several places around the

globe in the next two weeks so mankind will be ready for an earthquake he wrote a book with another warning may concern some distant galaxy because there's a possibility that the stars concentrated in it will produce an impact on the earth within an asteroid is going to approach the earth in four years' time it will pass into a kilometers from the earth well that would be a really serious threat that's the kind of data that governments need rather than just telemetry from the spacecraft which is of no use to them they wouldn't even know how to decode it so we suggested creating this global monitoring system twenty three countries have already joined the project which i've been appointed head of was it your right ear to set up such a system. for the idea came from russian researchers at the moment china is nasa is seriously considering joining this project and i don't like to use the word saving mankind when we do need such a system to warn us about potential threats surely this isn't won't get out expensive all that members have to do is to share the data they obtain from their

national space system perhaps there will be a small number should be held. but every time i talk to somebody and explain why we need such a system everybody supports the idea. we actually start working. we don't have a timeframe yet because first we need to complete all formalities and obtain permission from governments to start building those data processing centers in all the continents. because the construction of. recently the russian government had a special meeting chaired by prime minister vladimir putin which decided that in a month's time the ministry of economic development should submit a program for the construction of infrastructure that was launched in. and that the russian space agency should set up its office up a cosmodrome everything should be ready in a month or so we monitor the situation and work together with the ministry of economic development on these issues the construction of infrastructure will start

in june. and what will happen to baikonur cosmodrome in kazakhstan after russia and its own costume for a. week or more with nothing special like you nor will continue functioning because it will be impossible to abandon it immediately after we launch our first spacecraft while that's not the way things are done in the space industry we won't stop the operation of soyuz spacecraft we are going to use another carrier rocket it was watching while flight tests will be held there we will have no continuing launching spacecraft from baikonur so you spacecraft will also carry various satellites including commercial ones like global star etc we're going to use baikonur together with kazakhstan ukraine and other countries it's just like in the case of this is anything. external to enter this joint stock company and operate as anything launchpad together with united states ukraine russia and kazakhstan and so then it will stay there forever but the proton launch pad will be used on tell and

care of by passes all flight tests in the north which means at least ten launches and by tareq passes like test in the south that will take almost ten years and that's all three complex as will function for at least another ten years before they will be financed mainly by private investors rather than from the state budget i'll figure out what about the crew space center is it a good example of international space cooperation. yes of course but only as far as carrier rockets are concerned i want to first say yes takeoff from. european countries or recently announced it won't happen before august or even september first and they're going to launch two galileo spacecraft for their navigation system and they will be manufactured before august or september but construction works the crew have been finished. well today russia is an indisputable leader in space launches but also other countries are catching up on

what should russia do to keep its positions on the market. you know we constantly come under criticism with our critics say we only work as a space taxi i beg to differ i agree with you that we should do our best to keep our superior already in this area too if we don't seek leadership anywhere and we're not going to be leaders anywhere but his leadership in a number of space launches me the most important thing is that we should have no accidents this means tough competition in carrier rockets and liquid and solid fuel engines then there is competition in control systems so it's not a single space launch can take place today without a booster i don't like to compare russia with other countries but i can say that china will be catching up with us in the next few years strange as it may seem it's going to be china not the us and we should be ready for this. war on one hand the united states need to stick their satellites into orbit but how much do we

depend on p.s. manufactured parts for our carrier rockets let's say we have a little conference in the united states where we'll be able to build carrier rockets on our own. we are absolutely independent russian carrier rockets usually russian made components never and under no circumstances can we have such a situation especially with military rockets where one hundred percent of parts are russian made spacecraft is different and sixty's. seventy or eighty percent of materials used for their construction are foreign made i wish it weren't so but today it's simply impossible to produce everything yourself besides most is an extremely good history literally ceased to exist in the one nine hundred ninety s. it will take a long time to restore it so as far as spacecraft are concerned we should seriously consider this issue we decided that we in the space industry should use materials and parts ourselves because we don't expect our electronics industry to recover anytime soon the need to consummate that has suspended its space shuttle program

and will you sell you space ships and start giving so you station alone can ensure the normal operation of the assets. yes i think soon russia has been sending crews to the i s s on so you space ships for the past two years and shuttles fly to the i s s to deliver foreign astronauts aboard take them back to work like replacing italians with canadians or canadians with the germans would we definitely can handle the job if we have to launch for non spaceships five cargo craft plans. for the pavement of thank you very much for this interview. disarming saddam hussein. of iraqi citizens. this event brings further assurance that the torture
