[Ind4Ever]

Another Super power tries to play with growing power china and India. Hope we don't draw our miniature map on moon and do the same in the future

We have that, it's called our own space station 2022.

Moscow: Russia is exploring the possibility of a joint manned orbital station with India and China as part of a common strategy to create technological alliances and may take up the matter with the two Asian space giants in July.

"Moscow could propose to China and India to create a joint manned orbital station at the summit of the BRICS emerging economies in Russia's Ufa in July," a document drafted by the expert council at Russia's military and industrial commission said today.

The experts recommend "working out the possibilities of an international manned project with BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) countries as part of a common strategy of creating technological alliances", Itar Tass reported.

"We can start this work now and include the issue in the agenda of the BRICS business council in Ufa," the document reads.

In particular, Russia should make such a proposal to India and China, which have been actively developing their manned space programmes, the experts say.

Other perspective areas for further research could be modular rockets using methane as fuel and also the creation of an aerospace vehicle, which could be used in the future to construct a fighter or a bomber of the sixth generation.

Russia May Create Joint Orbital Station with India, China

Meh. It seems the Russians are making a lot of proclamations these days in a bid to seem less isolated than it is. A "joint orbital station" seems like a colossal waste of money that benefits China very little. Especially since China already has its own space station plans like @Genesis has already mentioned. From a financial point of view, I could also see China getting stuck with the bulk of the bill. No thanks.

Maybe you don't know the skills of a Chinese dine and dasher, we can stick you with the bill like it's nobody's business.

"Yea, I'll be back, just going to the washroom."

Next day

"Sorry, got lost and and somehow ended up home instead."

buahaha only you would say that. seriously.

 

[Aepsilons]

now who says China can't innovate, 7. whatever people in the world, one me.

Any pictures of developments of Chinese space station ?

 

[Providence]

Ain't gonna happen. There is no convergence with regards to a space station and that too manned. Firstly, China is already on it's way to have their own. And Indians, well they don't even have the tech currently and not too keen on manned space missions it seems for the coming decade.

 

[SrNair]

Good initiative.We should cooperate with these project.So we can access to an orbital station .

 

[Cossack25A1]

funny thing about space stations, the current "International Space Station" was originally one of former pres. Reagan's pet project called "Space Station Freedom" but wasn't created during his term.

Doesn't seem financially feasible for India undertake such project. Much more pressing issues at ISRO.

Space station are now of little use, I think. We are not launching space vehicles from space stations into deep space or any other planets. Just some are going there and spending some vacations and doing researches about whom very few know. Better to concentrate of economical launch of vehicles into deep space and exploration.

 

[Levina]

Sounds good
But the "mays"and "could bes" in the article mean that its not happening in the near future.
Btw why is Japan not in the list?
I think it makes sense to pull in Japan too .

. Better to concentrate of economical lunch of vehicles into deep space and exploration.

Lunch???
Why not dinner of vehicles??
