Russians to help NASA build a space station around the Moon

in la •  7 years ago 

The space agency Roscomos has joined Deep Space Gateway, the international project whose goal is to build a station in lunar orbit, then explore deep space.


Space remains one of the few areas of bilateral cooperation not affected by tensions between the United States and Russia. The Russian space agency Roscosmos confirmed it by announcing that it had signed an agreement with its American counterpart, NASA, to build an orbital station around the Moon.


"Roscosmos and Nasa have confirmed their intention to cooperate as part of an international lunar program: the creation of the Deep Space Gateway platform," Roscosmos said. The signing of the agreement took place on Wednesday in Adelaide, Australia, where the 68th International Astronautical Congress is held.
