"Russia's Proposal: Collaborative Space Research Module for China, India, Brazil, and South Africa"

Russia has proposed that its partners in the BRICS group (Brazil, India, China, and South Africa) participate in the construction of a joint module for its planned orbital space station, following its decision to end its partnership with NASA and withdraw from the International Space Station. The first stage of the Russian Orbital System (ROS) is expected to be launched in 2027, with additional modules dispatched between 2028 and 2030. Russia also offered African nations the opportunity to create their own modules, emphasizing its openness to cooperation with other countries. The ROS aims to develop technologies for future space flights, including those to the moon and Mars.
