The general director of the company “CosmoCourse” Pavel Pushkin named the reason for stopping the construction in the Nizhny Novgorod region of the first private cosmodrome in Russia and a reusable suborbital complex for space tourism. His words are reported by RIA Novosti.
According to Pushkin, a year ago the company agreed with the regional authorities to agree primarily on the sanitary protection zones of the cosmodrome. The corresponding project was sent to the regional institute of Rospotrebnadzor, then to the Federal Medical and Biological Agency (FMBA), and then to the federal Rospotrebnadzor. However, no response has yet been received, said the CEO.
“The suborbital project has been suspended, nothing is being coordinated with the cosmodrome. Everyone nods at each other. We worked a lot on the technique, but in such conditions we stopped work, ”explained Pushkin.
