Roscosmos jointly with the Russian Academy of Sciences came up with the package of built-in services, in the disclosed methodology development of the moon. So, the agencies propose to give the state more lit and luxury resources surface.
His proposal Roscosmos and the Russian Academy of Sciences sent to several organizations: RSC Energia, head of the scientific organization of Roscosmos - TsNIIMash, specialized organizations of RAS - space research Institute, NPO Lavochkin. How can we say the experts, the main difference between the document from other concepts in that it answers the main question "What would Russia gain when you master the moon, spending trillions of dollars?". RAS and Roscosmos have answered it quite specifically: RF ought promptly to secure a more promising region of the moon's South pole.
"At the beginning of the XXI century will unfold rivalry space powers for the possession of the most beautiful lunar beachheads to create a future research stations. Lunar bases will be selected from a very long and light availability in their particular surroundings deposits of water ice," the lead "Izvestia" the text of the document.
Today, the principles of using the moon, States are governed by the Treaty on outer space 1967. Previously it was signed by the USSR, the United States and England. After they joined more than a Hundred countries. According to 1 of the points in this document, any space, including the moon and other celestial bodies, is not suitable to national appropriation by the method of claim of sovereignty, by the method of use or occupation, or by any other means. Furthermore stipulates that everyone must respect the sovereignty of each unit sent into space.
However, the researchers report that the last few years, the United States struggling to capture the moon does not give the other to explore it: "the United States actually hope to nationalize the area of the moon around the site of the first landing of Apollo 11". The moon exploration by Russian researchers must occur as a gradual expansion of infrastructure on previously explored the bridgehead with the right lighting conditions, connection with the earth and the lunar presence of natural resources".
Domestic experts propose to explore the South pole of the moon in 3 steps. At the first planned exploration and landing on the second - the creation of the polygon and on the 3rd - base construction. On the moon the landfill is planned to place monitoring stations of the Earth, benches for the latest space and biomedical tools for the preparation of expeditions to Mars. But while all proposals remain at the study level.
