Roscosmos Federal Space Agency Anatoly Perminov said he believes it is up to the country's leadership to decide on his further work as the Head of the agency following reports of his soon to be forced retirement, Bloomberg reports. Parabolic Arc's Doug Messier pointed to reports yesterday leading to the conclusion that Perminov will soon be ousted as head of the Russian space effort.
Nonetheless, the Russian Space Agency is eager to expand its travel program, which sends enthusiasts to the International Space Station, according to Russian Today [RT] as one of their reporters spoke to Anatoly Perminov to find out when tickets to orbit will be available once again.
An American spaceport may benefit from Russian commercial space tourism along with Virginia-based Space Adventures, if multi-million dollar space tourism resumes in next five years under a new state tax law in Virginia.
