1. Which country approved a plan to build a new orbital space station by 2033?
Russia has set out plans to build its own orbital station by 2033. This project includes launching modules, conducting flight tests of new spacecraft, and developing necessary infrastructure both in space and on Earth. The decision comes as Russia prepares to gradually withdraw from the International Space Station (ISS) partnership by 2028, aiming to enhance its capabilities in space exploration and national security through independent orbital initiatives.
