Roscosmos head Rogozin: Russia and the US will send a joint mission to Venus This was stated by the head of “Roscosmos” Dmitry Rogozin on the air of the program “Soloviev LIVE”, the broadcast was conducted on the YouTube channel Roscosmos Media.
“We agreed with the Americans on a joint mission to Venus. Venus has traditionally been considered the Russian planet. It was the Soviet apparatus that landed there. But now we are going to put a mission there, it is called “Venera-D” – a joint Russian-American mission, “Rogozin said.
He explained that this joint work will help to simplify this task from an economic point of view, technology and science. “Why is it joint with the Americans? Because it is very difficult. Here it is easier to solve such issues jointly, together, crossing the talents of our scientists, and at the same time it will be economically simpler, and more reliable in terms of the operation of technology, and so on. Therefore, the Americans are also interested in this, “- said the head of the state corporation.
