New Russian Space Shuttles

January 1st, 2007

According to Sci-Tech Today, Russia will soon be making new space shuttles that could play an important roll in future International Space Station missions.

“Russian space shuttles will ferry American astronauts to the ISS after the U.S. Shuttle program is decommissioned by NASA in 2010. Russia plans to begin construction of its own shuttle, the Kliper (often called the Clipper in English), in 2012.”
