Well i was looking for russian Buran shuttles , an i got this picture of a new shuttle, smaller, capable of transporting 6 persons and 700 kg of equipement. And that the proposal was made to ESA and Japan space agency to join the russian space program, but ESA said no.
well anyway here is the picture.

What do you think about this, Will Japan say yes to cooperate with Russia? 😕

Amnother pic....

Interesting story, I don't think Japan will co-operate. They obviosuly don't want to spend huge sums of money on a space program, otherwise they'd have made a shuttle of their own by now, they have the technology and the economy to do so.

Yes, that is truth. Thanks for the pic.
I thin it is not a good option, for now. 😞
