"Russia is very sophisticated in space exploration. We have over 100 satellites orbiting the Earth; and this number will gradually increase. With 40% of the world's annual spacecraft launches, this country is one of the unqualified leaders in manned space ventures. We follow through on our commitments regarding the International Space Station."
