Russia launches service module for int'l space station
BAIKONUR, Kazakstan, Juh 12: The long-delayed International Space Station got a boost today when a Russian Proton K rocket blasted off flawlessly from the Baikonur cosmodrome and pushed the station's service module Into orbit, re-ports AP.
Russia and the United States have invested high hopes In the Zvezda module, the core of the 60 billion dollar. 16-natlon space station project Without the module, no crews could be sent up to the station, because Zvezda will contain the flight controls, sewage system and living quarters.
At Mission Control outside Moscow, Russian and US space agency officials applauded as the module went into orbit approximately 10 minutes after being launched at 8:56 Moscow time 11056 BST).
The officials gathered at Mission Control and in Baikonur, in the remote steppes of Kazakstan, were ecstatic, and they praised each other for strong commitment to the project.
"I have to say that this is one of the happiest and proudest days of my life," said NASA administrator Daniel Goldin ”We set a vision eight years ago and we stuck to that vision
US President Ronald Reagan set the International Space Station programme In motion in 1984. Nine years later, with the project in turmoil. President Bill Clinton invited the Russians to Join.
However. Instead of saving the United States time and money as hoped, the Russians caused even more delays and created even bigger expenses for NASA-some 3 billion dollar. The Zvezda module was launched two years behind schedule.
The Zvezda module went into orbit unmanned, and it is scheduled to dock on July 26 by computer with two other space station components, Zarya and Unity, which were launched in
1998. The first crew could go to the station by October, the US space agency NASA has said.
Before we pop the champagne corks, we have two more weeks before we dock, but I have a sense everything will be OK." Goldin said. In the even the automatic linkup goes awry, two cosmonauts are on standby to fly immediately to Zvezda aboard a Soyuz rocket from Baikonur.
A live feed from the cosmodrome was broadcast on console
video screens at Mission Control. while a huge screen in front of the officials tracked the rocket's flight from the cosmodrome on the wind-swept steppes of Kazakstan into the cloudless skies.
The rocket's three stages fell away, one at a time, as the module was boosted into orbit around the Earth. As the solar panels and then several antennas unfolded on the module, applause rippled through Mission Control.
