Russia and China are ‘almost ready’ to strike a deal on building human bases on the Moon, said Roscosmos Director General Dmitry Rogozin in an interview.

Russia and China are ‘almost ready’ to strike a deal on building human bases on the Moon. According to Russia’s TASS news agency, this revelation was made by Dmitry Rogozin, Director General of the Russian space agency Roscosmos during a TV interview with state-owned Rossiya 24.

"We are now almost ready to sign an intergovernmental agreement on creating a lunar research base with China”, Rogozin had said. The Sino-Russian partnership is likely to fuel a new space race, something which is already in motion, NASA Administrator Bill Nelson had said. The lunar base by Russia and China will reportedly be constructed under the International Lunar Research Station (ILRS), a roadmap that was presented by space agencies of the two countries during the Global Space Exploration Conference last year (GLEX 2021).

According to the roadmap, China and Russia have plans to construct the base in three phases and make it functional by 2035. Tap here to read more about the roadmap to the Sino-Russian lunar base.

Someone should tell China about how the Russians were the slowest with providing terribly made portions of the ISS. They were miserable construction partners.

That sounds huge, given that the Russians invented the modular stations and know more about them than everyone else.

They do these announcements all the time. Nothing ever happens. It’s to make the gullible Russia cheerleaders happy.

Here is one of the previous ones:

“25 Jan 2006

“We are planning to build a permanent base on the Moon by 2015 and by 2020 we can begin the industrial-scale delivery … of the rare isotope Helium-3,” Nikolai Sevastyanov, head of the Energia space corporation, was quoted by ITAR-TASS news agency as saying at an academic conference on Wednesday.”

Praise Putin! Amerika pizdets! Russia Stronk!

We ended up paying for most of the stuff the Russians built for the ISS in order to help them stay on schedule. They were always late to deliver.
