Belarus is negotiating with Russia to send its cosmonaut on a space mission to the prospective Russian Orbital Station (ROS). This was announced by the Chairman of the Presidium of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) of Belarus, Vladimir Karanik, on the sidelines of the Russian Space Forum.
We are discussing the implementation of the ROS project, and we very much hope that a long-term space mission with the participation of a cosmonaut from the Republic of Belarus will be prepared within the framework of this project.
He recalled that this is not Belarus's first experience. In 2024, a female cosmonaut, Marina Vasilevskaya, worked at the International Space Station (ISS). She participated in research in the field of biotechnology.
We are now forming the agenda, and this, of course, requires longer preparation.
As part of its cooperation with Russia, Belarus has gained access to manned flights and Earth remote sensing satellite programs. At the same time, partnerships are developing in areas such as microelectronics, lasers, and optics.
Minsk does not plan to build its own spaceport or develop launch vehicles. Russia has the appropriate infrastructure at its disposal.
