Around half a century ago our country started discovering space opening the era of its

conquering. Fifty years have passed since Gagarin flew to space on the first spaceship Vostok andsince that time Russia has become the centre of manned spaceflights. The UN has announced the12th of April international day of manned flight. The whole world celebrate it according to the Russiancalendar.

The International Space Station. It is the humans outpost in the Earths orbit, the largestspace object which has ever been made. Nowadays only Russia can launch spaceships withastronauts to the ISS. Russian Space Agency has a mission for several years to maintain anddevelop the space station, discover deep space.

Space missions of the 21st century will begin in the Far East, in the Amur region. A new city

and the most advanced spaceport "Vostochny" with four launch pads, a training complex forastronauts, hotels, a railway station and an airport will be soon built there in the taiga.

Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, the Russian prime-minister, once said that the spaceport"Vostochny" was intended to confirm the high status and the leading position of Russia in that field.

Nowadays our country chooses its own way to the stars. There are plans for the developmentof deep space for several decades in the new federal program. Now Russian scientists work onexploring space after a long break. The most advanced telescope "Radioastron was the first in aseries of launches of automatical machines which should explore galaxy.

Vladimir Popovkin the head of the Federal Space Agency says that they are planning tolaunch a space telescope in X-rays range to examine the same phenomena in 2013, one in theultraviolet range in 2015. Now they are working on the space telescope in millimeter range which willbe launched after 2015, may be in 2017.

Russian space is coming in everyone's life. The satellites "Resurs DK" and "Electro-L help tomonitor wildfires and prevent disasters. GLONASS' satellites map the way for earthlings. This yearthe formation of the orbital constellation and international certification of GLONASS' system will becompleted. Russia is ready to let the whole world use the signal of its navigation system free ofcharge.

Space industry is the innovative engine that can make other sectors of our economydevelop, space exploration advances fundamental and applied science.
