Space experiments begin: Russians are building a laboratory in Earth orbit

Russia's Federal Medical-Biological Agency (FMBA) has developed proposals for a multi-functional medical-biological module to be added to Russia's Orbital Station, aiming to transition from individual experiments on the International Space Station to a comprehensive orbital laboratory. The FMBA has already initiated several space experiments, four of which are included in the planned research agenda for the Russian Orbital Station. On May 8, the FMBA and Roscosmos formed a joint working group focused on medical and sanitary protection for workers in the rocket and space industry, covering scientific research, medical support for cosmonauts, and other areas. Vladimir Kozhemykin, the lead designer of the Russian Orbital Station, previously stated that the station could be fully constructed by 2034. Roscosmos head Dmitry Bobkov emphasized that installation of the first ROS module is planned for 2028 and highlighted the importance of aligning the completion of the ISS with the development of the new Russian orbital station.
