As the main successor to the Soviet space program, Roscosmos' legacy includes the world's first satellite, first human spaceflight, and first space station ([[Engineering:Salyut programme|Salyut]]). Its current activities include the International Space Station, wherein it is a major partner. On 22&nbsp;February 2019, Roscosmos announced the construction of its new headquarters in [[Place:Moscow|Moscow]], the [[Organization:National Space Centre (Moscow)|National Space Centre]]. Its [[Astronomy:Roscosmos Cosmonaut Corps|Astronaut Corps]] is the first in the world's history.

== History ==
{{Main|Astronomy:Soviet space program}}
[[File:I8552-Russian-Space-Agency large.png|thumb|right|Patch of the Russian Space Agency, 1991–2004]]
[[File:Zal raketnoi techniki.JPG|400px|thumb|right|The Hall of [[Russian space program|Space Technology]] in the Tsiolkovsky State Museum of the History of Cosmonautics, Kaluga, Russia. The exhibition includes the models and replicas of the following Russian/Soviet inventions:<br />

the first spacesuits (lower-left corner);<br />
the first [[Astronomy:Human spaceflight|human spaceflight]] module, the [[Engineering:Vostok (spacecraft)|Vostok 3KA]] (center);<br />

the first space station, ''[[Engineering:Salyut 1|Salyut 1]]'' (left);<br />
the first modular space station, ''[[Astronomy:Mir|Mir]]'' (upper left).]]

The [[Astronomy:Soviet space program|Soviet space program]] did not have central executive agencies. Instead, its organizational architecture was multi-centered; it was the design bureaus and the council of designers that had the most say, not the political leadership. The creation of a central agency after the separation of Russia from the [[Place:Soviet Union|Soviet Union]] was therefore a new development. The Russian Space Agency was formed on 25&nbsp;February 1992, by a decree of President Yeltsin. Yuri Koptev, who had previously worked with designing Mars landers at NPO Lavochkin, became the agency's first director.<ref name="harvey">{{cite book|last=Harvey|first=Brian|title=The Rebirth of the Russian Space Program|publisher=Springer|location=Germany|date=2007|edition=1st|chapter=The design bureaus|isbn=978-0-387-71354-0}}</ref>

In the early years, the agency suffered from lack of [[Philosophy:Authority|authority]] as the powerful design bureaus fought to protect their own spheres of operation and to survive. For example, the decision to keep Mir in operation beyond 1999 was not made by the agency, but by the private shareholder board of the Energia design bureau. Another example is that the decision to develop the new Angara rocket was rather a function of Khrunichev's ability to attract resources than a conscious long-term decision by the agency.<ref name="harvey" />

=== Crisis years ===
The 1990s saw serious financial problems due to the decreased cash flow, which encouraged the space agency to improvise and seek other ways to keep space programs running. This resulted in the agency's leading role in commercial satellite launches and [[Astronomy:Space tourism|space tourism]].{{citation needed|date=November 2018}} Scientific missions, such as interplanetary probes or astronomy missions during these years played a very small role, and although the agency had connections with the Russian aerospace forces, its budget was not part of Russia's defense budget; nevertheless, the agency managed to operate the [[Astronomy:Mir|Mir]] space station well past its planned lifespan, contributed to the [[Astronomy:International Space Station|International Space Station]], and continued to fly Soyuz and Progress missions.

=== 2000: Start of ISS cooperation ===
On 31&nbsp;October 2000, a Soyuz spacecraft lifted off from the Baikonur Cosmodrome at 10:53&nbsp;a.m. Kazakhstan time. On board were Expedition One Commander William M. (Bill) Shepherd of NASA and cosmonauts [[Biography:Sergei Krikalev|Sergei Krikalev]] and Yuri Gidzenko of Roscosmos. The trio arrived at the International Space Station on 2&nbsp;November, marking the start of an uninterrupted human presence on the orbiting laboratory.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.nasa.gov/image-feature/oct-31-2000-launch-of-first-crew-to-international-space-station|title=Oct. 31, 2000, Launch of First Crew to International Space Station|last=Loff|first=Sarah|date=28 October 2015|website=NASA|access-date=24 January 2020|archive-date=18 September 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200918113649/https://www.nasa.gov/image-feature/oct-31-2000-launch-of-first-crew-to-international-space-station/|url-status=live}}</ref>

=== 2004–2006: Improved situation ===
In March 2004, the agency's director Yuri Koptev was replaced by Anatoly Perminov, who had previously served as the first commander of the Space Forces.<ref name="harvey" /><ref name="spacecorp.ru" />

The Russian economy boomed throughout 2005 from high prices for exports, such as oil and gas, the outlook for future funding in 2006 appeared more favorable. This resulted in the Russian Duma approving a budget of 305 billion rubles (about US$11 billion) for the Space Agency from January 2006 until 2015, with overall space expenditures in Russia total about 425 billion rubles for the same time period.<ref>{{cite news| url=https://www.forbes.com/finance/feeds/afx/2005/07/15/afx2141304.html |date=15 July 2005 | work=Forbes | title=Russian govt agrees 12.5 bln eur 10-yr space programme |archive-date=1 May 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070501124334/http://www.forbes.com/finance/feeds/afx/2005/07/15/afx2141304.html}}</ref> The budget for 2006 was as high as 25 billion rubles (about US$900 million), which is a 33% increase from the 2005 budget. Under the current 10-year budget approved, the budget of the Space Agency shall increase 5–10% per year, providing the space agency with a constant influx of money. In addition to the budget, Roscosmos plans to have over 130 billion rubles flowing into its budget by other means, such as industry investments and commercial space launches. It is around the time US-based ''[[Organization:The Planetary Society|The Planetary Society]]'' entered a partnership with Roscosmos.

Due to [[Astronomy:International Space Station|International Space Station]] involvements, up to 50% of Russia's space budget is spent on the crewed space program {{asof|2009|lc=y}}. Some observers have pointed out that this has a detrimental effect on other aspects of space exploration, and that the other space powers spend much lesser proportions of their overall budgets on maintaining human presence in orbit.<ref name="observer">{{cite news|url=http://www.ato.ru/content/building-sand|title=Building on sand?The Russian ISS segment is to be completed by 2016|last=Afanasyev|first=Igor|author2=Dmitri Vorontsov|date=1 November 2009|publisher=Russia & CIS Observer|access-date=3 January 2010|archive-date=28 February 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120228221206/http://www.ato.ru/content/building-sand|url-status=live}}</ref>

=== 2013–2016: Reorganization of the Russian space sector ===
[[File:2022-roscosmos-logo-main-eng-1.png|thumb|2022 alternate logo of Roscosmos]]

As a result of a series of reliability problems, and proximate to the failure of a July 2013 Proton M launch, a major reorganization of the Russian space industry was undertaken.  The United Rocket and Space Corporation was formed as a [[Social:Joint-stock company|joint-stock]] corporation by the government in August 2013 to consolidate the Russian [[Engineering:Spaceflight|space]] sector.  Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin said "the failure-prone space sector is so troubled that it needs state supervision to overcome its problems."<ref name=pa20130830>{{cite news |last=Messier |first=Doug |title=Rogozin: Russia to Consolidate Space Sector into Open Joint Stock Company |url=http://www.parabolicarc.com/2013/08/30/rogozin-interview-kommersant/ |access-date=1 September 2013 |newspaper=Parabolic Arc |date=30 August 2013 |archive-date=14 February 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170214193801/http://www.parabolicarc.com/2013/08/30/rogozin-interview-kommersant/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

He said: "Russian space productivity is eight times lower than America's, with companies duplicating one another's work and operating at about 40 percent efficiency."<ref name=pa20131009>{{cite news |last=Messier |first=Doug |title=Rogozin Outlines Plans for Consolidating Russia's Space Industry |url=http://www.parabolicarc.com/2013/10/09/rogozin-outlines-plans-consolidating-russias-space-industry/ |access-date=11 October 2013 |newspaper=Parabolic Arc |date=9 October 2013 |archive-date=10 June 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170610155101/http://www.parabolicarc.com/2013/10/09/rogozin-outlines-plans-consolidating-russias-space-industry/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

Roscosmos is responsible for expedition crew launches by Soyuz-TMA spacecraft and resupplies the space station with Progress space transporters. After the initial ISS contract with NASA expired, Roscosmos and NASA, with the approval of the US government, entered into a space contract running until 2011, according to which Roscosmos will sell NASA spots on Soyuz spacecraft for approximately $21 million per person each way, thus $42 million to and back from the ISS per person, as well as provide Progress transport flights, at $50 million per Progress as outlined in the [[Astronomy:Exploration Systems Architecture Study|Exploration Systems Architecture Study]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.mosnews.com/news/2006/01/06/nasabuys.shtml|archive-url=https://archive.today/20060110222839/http://www.mosnews.com/news/2006/01/06/nasabuys.shtml|url-status=dead|archive-date=2006-01-10|title=NASA Signs $44m Deal with Russia for Soyus Rides to ISS – NEWS – MOSN…}}</ref> Roscosmos announced that according to this arrangement, crewed Soyuz flights would be doubled to 4 per year and Progress flights doubled to 8 per year beginning in 2008.{{update inline|date=March 2022}}{{citation needed|date=March 2022}}

=== Rockets ===
Roscosmos uses a family of several launch rockets, the most famous of them being the R-7, commonly known as the [[Engineering:Soyuz (rocket family)|Soyuz]] rocket that is capable of launching about 7.5 tons into [[Astronomy:Low Earth orbit|low Earth orbit]] (LEO). The Proton rocket (or UR-500K) has a lift capacity of over 20 tons to LEO. Smaller rockets include [[Engineering:Rokot|Rokot]] and other Stations.

Currently rocket development encompasses both a new rocket system, Angara, as well as enhancements of the Soyuz rocket, Soyuz-2 and Soyuz-2-3. Two modifications of the Soyuz, the Soyuz-2.1a and Soyuz-2.1b have already been successfully tested, enhancing the launch capacity to 8.5 tons to LEO.

One of Roscosmos's projects that was widely covered in the media in 2005 was [[Engineering:Kliper|Kliper]], a small [[Engineering:Lifting body|lifting body]] reusable spacecraft. While Roscosmos had reached out to ESA and [[Organization:JAXA|JAXA]] as well as others to share development costs of the project, it also stated that it will go forward with the project even without the support of other space agencies. This statement was backed by the approval of its budget for 2006–2015, which includes the necessary funding of [[Engineering:Kliper|Kliper]]. However, the Kliper program was cancelled in July 2006,<ref name=flightglobal>[http://www.flightglobal.com/Articles/2006/07/18/Navigation/200/207935/Farnborough+Russia's+Federal+Space+Agency+cancels+manned+spacecraft.html www.flightglobal.com]</ref> and has been replaced by the new [[Engineering:Orel (spacecraft)|Orel]] project. {{As of|2023}}, no crafts were launched.

However, soon after the spacecraft exited the atmosphere, mission control lost contact with the vessel which led to an attempt to reestablish communication that was only achieved later in the mission. When the satellite returned to Earth after its planned two-month mission had been cut short to 44 days, the space agency researchers reported that all the geckos had perished during the flight.

The exact cause that led to the deaths of the geckos was declared unknown by the scientific team in charge of the project. Reports from the Institute of Medical and Biological Problems in Russia have indicated that the lizards had been dead for at least a week prior to their return to Earth. A number of those connected to the mission have theorized that a failure in the vessel's heating system may have caused the cold blooded reptiles to freeze to death.

Included in the mission were a number of fruit flies, plants, and mushrooms which all survived the mission.<ref>{{Cite web|url = https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-29028326|title = Sex geckos die in orbit on Russian space project|date = Sep 2, 2014|website = BBC News|access-date = 21 June 2018|archive-date = 2 January 2020|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20200102122125/https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-29028326|url-status = live}}</ref>

== Launch control ==
{{Main|Organization:Russian Space Forces}}

The [[Organization:Russian Space Forces|Russian Space Forces]] is the military counterpart of the Roscosmos with similar mission objectives as of the United States Space Force. The Russian branch was formed after the merging of the space components of the {{wipe|Russian Air Force}} and the [[Organization:Russian Aerospace Defence Forces|Aerospace Defense Forces]] (VKO) in 2015. The Space Forces controls Russia's Plesetsk Cosmodrome launch facility. Roscosmos and the Space Forces share control of the Baikonur Cosmodrome, where Roscosmos reimburses the VKO for the wages of many of the flight controllers during civilian launches. Roscosmos and the Space Forces also share control of the [[Company:Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center|Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center]].
