Hi Peter,
One of the journals I edit in translated form is Russian Herald, which is the proceedings of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The last issue has a big thind on the space program. It is absolutely amazing what they are able to do with so little! Planned Mars expeditions, Mercury...
Did you catch the psycho Washington Post op-ed on Russian imperialism? Putin appears on Ukrainian TV and suddenly he's Darth Vader. Somebody should tell the Post that Putin has like a 70% popularity rating in Ukraine.
===== Nu, zayats, pogodi!
