A cloud with the brand of "kosmoport". A note about a new swivel in a cosmic policy.
A catastrophic event in its significance is the loss by Russia of a permanently operating, permanently inhabited space station on near-earth orbit.
What is the meaning of this event?
First, cosmonauts are capable of thinking and speaking and evaluating (and sometimes criticizing). The fewer people who criticize, the better. Now those who are praising are needed. And best of all, to reduce the number of those who are potentially capable of criticizing.
Secondly, the less time cosmonauts spend in space, the greater the financial savings.
Thirdly, for long-distance manned flights (for example, to the Moon), spacecraft of a special design are needed, which Russia does not have now. So it is better to pretend in advance to be progressive people, who are heading for robots and artificial intelligence.
There are other reasons for the gradual downsizing of manned space exploration.
Naturally, without a new verbal design, one should not dare to make such a change in course.
A new words are needed, a new brands, so that consumers of media products have a pleasant foggy cloud of thoughts in their heads (the Andromeda nebula).
"ROSS is planned in the form of a station-cloud , when the station contains not only a core, but also autonomous modules flying around it, which periodically come to the station to maintain it." "... ROSS will become a space port for small spacecraft ..." [unofficial translation] (https://tass.ru/kosmos/12231503?utm_source=yxnews&utm_medium=desktop)
