Russia has developed a groundbreaking technology for launching drones from the International Space Station, according to Denis Manturov, the First Deputy Prime Minister.
By 2030, we must ensure a gradual transition to our own space station, module by module. This station will be the world's first drone platform equipped with robots for maintenance. This is a patented invention of the Russian Federation, Manturov said at the Council for Strategic Development and National Projects.
The objective is to cover the entire country with stable communication channels by 2030.
The use of reusable rocket stages will allow Russia to maintain its position among the top three in space launches.
