the fear of inherited two wars missile being office. first. international news twenty four hours a day live from moscow this is top stories this casualties rise in libya is colonel gadhafi is desperately searching for a way out of the crisis meanwhile joins a list of countries to recognize libya's rebels as the legitimate government. russian pilot taken to the u.s. to face drug trafficking charges claims this was done illegally and some say america is developing a tendency of snatching people in order to try them on its own sort. of

pull out to the international space station from the baikonur cosmodrome in kazakhstan almost exactly fifty years after the first flights into orbit. he spoke with the head of the russian space agency about the country's space program and the importance of the soyuz spacecraft and the totally said that with the u.s. shuttle program ending this year russian ships are more than ready to fill the void that's going to be 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

unfortunately we are unable to do it now and we won't be until the space shuttles resume delivering space crews to the i assess which won't happen before twenty fifteen or even twenty seventeen according to nasa experts the only other possibility is if we build a new spacecraft within the next two years and then we'll be able to take space tourists to the i.r.s. . of course everybody wants to know how much that's going to cost and if you already have some people who want to go through or. we have many people who want to go many obligations from various countries as well as 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 of space tourists will have to pay the price has gone up a little due to currency rate or to asians into the rising cost of materials. is a one day space tourism may become available to all people.

definitely when we first started sending tourists to outer space we straightaway knows is 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 the only concern i have is that nobody should ignore safety measures safety regulations for space tourists should be this. as for regular nasa or all schools most space programs work. let's talk a bit about that marse five hundred protract how important is it for a preparing long term space experiments but. of course it's important that's the second time we're conducting such an experiment there was a similar project in the soviet union the current project is international if i could leading space agencies like the european space agency arms china take part in it indicates how important this project is ask for specific results will have to

wait for the project to be completed this 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. now or 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 the glue nasa allegations system as you may know we also work with japan a lot 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 ins project their significance for science for the future is

great some of these are really important also we've recently started working with the newly established u.k. space agency and we are developing our cooperation with canada. within the c.i.s. i should mention kazakhstan ukraine because we have joint projects with ukraine in virtually every area and bedrooms were you talks about creating a system of systems what does that mean does it mean that we should establish cooperation with. what i meant was a security system a warning system it's called the international global aerospace monitoring system its official now 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 for remote sensing and meteorological research we suggest that countries should send their data to data processing centers which could be

located in various continents north america south america africa asia and europe these data processing centers will produce recommendations for world leaders based on the data they receive there also countries that are small and poor they don't have their own spacecraft satellites and so on i present in time these are the countries that are often hit by floods and earthquakes say indonesia 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 another warning may concern some distant galaxy because there is a possibility that the stars concentrated in it will produce an impact on earth or that 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 tell imagery 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 and twenty three countries have already joined the project which i've been appointed head of what is your right to set up such a system. for the idea came from russian researchers at the moment china is nasa seriously considering joining this project i don't like to use the word saving mankind. well we do need such a system to warn us about potential threats actually this one won't get out expensive all that members have to do is to share the data they obtain from their national space systems perhaps there will be a small membership fee to help maintain the system but every time i talk to somebody and explain why we need such a system everybody supports the idea. gets a gas. may actually start working. we don't have a time frame 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 public because the construction of the passports now going on. 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 apples not steam and that the russian space agency should set up its office after cosmodrome everything should be ready in a month so we monitor the situation and work together with the ministry of economic development on these issues between struction of infrastructure will start in june . and what will happen to baikonur cosmodrome in kazakstan after russian built its own cost. nothing special why can or will continue functioning because it will be impossible to abandon it even after the first launch from. that's not the way things are done in the space industry we will start operating the soyuz spacecraft

but we are going to use another carrier rocket at first but while flight test will be held there we will have to continue launching spacecraft from baikonur so you spacecraft will also carry various satellites including commercial ones like global star etc we're going to operate by canoe or together with ca's extern ukraine and other countries it's just like in the case of the zealous launch pad because extern wants to enter this joint stock company and operate as a live rock a complex together with the united states ukraine and russia so then it will stay there forever protons will be used until anger of five passes by flight tests it's ten launches at least in the north of russia well by tareq carrier rockets will be tested in the south that will take almost ten years thus all three complexes will function for at least a decade but their operation will be financed mainly by private investors got a list a project. got a crew space center is it

a good example of international space cooperation. yes of course but only as far as carrier rockets are concerned and when will the first three years take off from. european countries a recently announced it won't happen before august or even september first they're going to launch to galileo spacecraft for their navigation system and they won't be manufactured before august or september but construction works the crew have been finished. today russia is an indisputable leader in space launches but also other countries are catching up what should russia do to keep its positions on the market. you know we constantly come under criticism 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 see leadership anywhere we're not going to be leaders anywhere what is leadership in the number of space launches we

have 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 also 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. one hand the united states need us to put their satellites into orbit but how much do we depend on here is manufactured parts for our carrier rockets let's say we have a little conflict in the united states where we'll be able to build carrier rockets on our own. we are absolutely independent russian carrier rockets use only russian made components never and under no circumstances can we have such a situation especially with military rockets where one hundred percent of parts

a russian made spacecraft is different 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 russia's electronic industry 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 produce materials and parts ourselves because we don't expect our electronics industry to recover any time soon the lookout for america has suspended its space shuttle program and will use ships and start he thinks a use patients alone can insure the normal operation of the s s. yes i think so russia has been sending crews to the i s s on so you space ships for the past two years shuttle supplies to the i s s to deliver foreign astronauts or take them back to worth like replacing italians with canadians or canadians with germans but we

definitely can handle the job if we have to launch four man spaceships and five cargo craft planned so. it's a pavement of think you very much for this interview. just
