Nearly 40 years ago, the Soviet Union (old) tried to cross the US in the race to the Moon. Currently, Russia wants to help the US return and establish a permanent base on Ms. Hang's surface.

According to Igor Panarin, spokesperson for the Russian Space Agency, Russia hopes to participate in the US moon exploration program with its technologies and ' know-how '. Also according to Igor Panarin, Russia is currently negotiating with the US Aerospace Agency (NASA) and expresses hope that the two sides can reach agreement in the next few months.

Last week, NASA announced it would send a crew of four to the Moon in 2020 and build an international base on one of the polar regions of the Moon. Since about 2024, this will be a permanent workplace for scientists.

Panarin said the Russian agreement with NASA could be similar to the Russian deal - the European Space Agency (ESA), which is expected to include commercial satellite launches with Russian Soyuz from France's Kourou launch pad. in Guyana, started in 2008.

Under the deal, Russia will provide boosters and ESA will finance the upgrade of launchers.

The former Soviet Union has sent many unmanned probes to explore the Moon, including two self-propelled ships studying the Moon's surface in 1970-1973. However, they failed in the race to Ms Hang with the US when in July 1969, the Americans successfully landed on the Moon.

Russia recently agreed to help China bring a probe to the Moon in 2010. Russia also sells technology to China as a basis for a manned space program, helping the country bring its first astronaut. His fairy came into space in 2003 and two other astronauts in 2005. The Chinese Shenzhou is quite similar to the Russian Soyuz.

Panarin said Russia could cooperate with both the US and China in studying the Moon and denied rumors about the possibility of competing with the US.'Cosmic research is a vast field that includes all countries' synergies , ' he explained.
