Russia: Russia’s state-run space corporation Roscosmos plans to carry 150 space launches by 2025, its CEO Igor Komarov told a space conference on January 23.
“In the period ending 2025 (the period of the newly-adopted federal space program) we plan to fundamentally upgrade the group of satellites in orbit. We plan to carry out more than 150 launches. That done the Russian orbital group will grow considerably,” he said.
Roscosmos has also obtained sufficient evidence of how much the group of the global navigation system GLONASS satellites is important to ensuring global security and upgrading the economy, he further added.
“In the near future we are to conduct a thorough analysis and set tasks to this group,” Komarov said.
