Thank for the link! Interesting stuff. What the hell's in the background of picture #15? A Buran mockup? It seems to be. If those pictures are from where I think they have been taken, namely the KISS assembly facility at RSC-Energyia, then it is definitely a Buran mock-up, as there is one there. However, pictures are supposedly forbidden there, so it may have been somewhere else. I especially like the picture 15, of the Active Docking assembly. It's straight the same as Progress ( which is also reused for ATV ). I wonder on the drive electronic they will use for it. Will it be the old Progress one, or a derivated of the new one ( devellopped for ATV )? The former is well-proven, but a bit out of date. The later is more modern but still has some teething problems. |

It is very interesting to see the views of the highbay the mockup Klipper is being assembled in; particularly those interesting views of what appears to be one of the high fidelity Buran shuttle orbiter mockups. -Mike |

Have a close look at picture 25, there's a complete Soyuz/Progress orbital module tucked in there. The second picture down on http://www.astronautix.com/craft/kliper.htm shows it more clearly. I'd suspect minimal changes will be made. Anthony |

I stumbled on some photos of the TU-130 spaceplane or MARV what's-it a couple of weeks ago this dated from the late 50's-early 60's: http://www.sergib.agava.ru/russia/tupolev/130/130.htm ....as well as the Tu-136 Soviet Dyna-Soar program clone: http://www.sergib.agava.ru/russia/tupolev/136/136.htm Pat |
