“As we know, four space launches are planned for 2023. “They will pass through the Vostochny cosmodrome,” said the minister.
Earlier, the Roscosmos press service reported that the Vostochny cosmodrome, located in the Amur Region, “slowly” increased launch activity.
“All “civilian” launches (which will be available to tourists): manned, trucks, satellite launches and other vehicles. But as there are some difficulties in logistics regarding Baikonur at the moment, it is better to talk to the tour operator,” he said.
