Experts from RSC Energia are also designing a new travel suit that makes traveling on the Moon easier.

"Walking on the Moon is not easy, we need special mobility devices, and you need to sit inside them in a comfortable position, then find the right place to put the devices. suffered, " said Alexander Poleshuk, deputy head of the company's research department.

"To do exactly all these things need practice."

After completing the experiment, they will conduct logistics research before designing a shelter on the Moon, moving vehicles, runways and other important parts.

The Russian Space Agency (Roscosmos) will bring a probe to the Moon in 2024 to scout the base points, before taking 12 astronauts there by 2030.
