Mr. Vinogradov said that to implement this idea will encounter technical difficulties and issues to protect people from radiation rays, but everything will be resolved satisfactorily.

The head of Energia Group is Vitali Lopot, a consortium that explores the manned planets called MEK that will be built and launched into orbit with the primary mission of exploring Mars.

This complex includes the most modern exploration equipment, mainly manned Mars vehicles that are equipped with means of investigating and studying the natural conditions on Mars, building a the number of infrastructures and the orbital station flying around Mars.

In addition, last June began the ' Mars-500 ' project, creating an Earth base that mimics the conditions of the identical spacecraft on Mars in which six lovers vow (being an astronaut) living and working in 520 days and nights.

These experiments will consist of 3 phases: 250 days and nights to make the flight from Earth to Mars, landing on this planet, the next 30 days the astronauts will stay on the surface of Mars to research, exploration and finally 240 days back to Earth .

According to experts, this experiment will be very similar to the fact of bringing a ship to Mars and returning to Earth about 10 years later.
