"NASA has not had the ability to send astronauts to the International Space Station since the space shuttle fleet was retired in 2011, and that's not going to change anytime soon. A plan to replace the shuttle by paying for rides on commercial spacecraft from SpaceX, Boeing or several other private companies has been delayed from its original 2015 anticipated start date due to budget cuts, NASA announced today. Instead, NASA has extended a contract with the Russian Space Agency (Roscosmos), paying another $424 million to allow US astronauts to fly aboard Russian Soyuz spacecraft through 2016, and to return them or provide rescue services through 2017."

Mistä halvimmalla lennetään!
Veli venäläisellä on paras tekniikka. Vanha mutta koeteltu, niin kuin itäautot. Sojuz suunniteltiin yli 50 vuotta sitten. Mutta mikäs siinä, pelittää yhä.
