Russia to build top-notch lunar power station

Roscosmos sealed the major deal to provide reliable, long-term energy for key elements of Russia's Moon program, such as lunar rovers, scientific observatories, and infrastructure for the International Lunar Research Station (ILRS).

The contract is scheduled to be implemented between 2025 and 2036.

The ambitious roadmap includes:

🟠 Designing advanced spacecraft

🟠 Rigorous ground-based testing and experimentation

🟠 In-flight trials

🟠 Deploying full infrastructure directly on the Moon's surface


“The project is an important step toward establishing a permanently operating scientific lunar station and moving from one-off missions to a long-term lunar research program,” Roscosmos said.


In June, Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov said that Russia plans to gradually transition from operating on the International Space Station (ISS) to its own national orbital station by 2030.
