Ngokwenkokeli yaseRussia yeNational AeroNet Technology Initiative, iRussia inokubona ukuqala kokhenketho lwabucala malunga neminyaka emihlanu.
I-National AeroNet Technology Initiative kaSergei Zhukov wayethetha malunga neprojekthi ebizwa ngokuba yiCosmoCourse, ephuhliswa ngumtyalo-mali wabucala.
Inkqubo entsha iza kuvumela abathathi-nxaxheba ukuba babhabhe imizuzu emininzi ukuya kumphakamo we-100km phambi kokuba behle ngeparashute okanye inqwelomoya eqhutywa yi-injini.
“Sithetha malunga nokuhamba kwabakhenkethi kwi-suborbital. Isithuthi sokuphehlelelwa, isithuthi sokwehla, kunye ne-injini ngoku zisaphuhliswa, "utshilo uZhukov, esongeza ukuba inkampani yophuhliso inelayisenisi evela kwi-arhente yendawo yaseRussia, iRoscosmos.
"Ndicinga ukuba oku kuyakuthatha iminyaka emihlanu, kodwa mhlawumbi ngaphezulu," yatsho ingcali.
Ngo-Agasti 2017, inkampani yabucala yaseRashiya iCosmoCourse ifumene ilayisenisi yeRoscosmos kwimisebenzi yendawo. Inkampani iceba ukwenza isiphekepheke se-suborbital esinokusetyenziswa kwakhona kukhenketho lwasemajukujukwini. UMlawuli Jikelele wale nkampani uPavel Pushkin uthe ngaphambili ukuba inani labemi baseRashiya bakulungele ukuhlawula i-$ 200,000 ukuya kwi-250,000 yeedola ngenqwelomoya kwinqanawa enjalo.
I-arhente yasemajukujukwini yaseRashiya sele ifezekisile imisebenzi yokhenketho lwe-orbital space.
Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, abakhenkethi abasixhenxe baye batyelela indawo. Owayesakuba sisazinzulu seNASA uDennis Tito waba ngumkhenkethi wokuqala wasemajukujukwini xa waya kwi-International Space Station kangangeentsuku ezisibhozo ngowama-2001. Abanye abakhenkethi basemajukujukwini abathandathu nabo batyelela esi sikhululo, ngamnye kubo ehlawula imali ephakathi kweedola ezingama-20 nezigidi ezingama-40 zeerandi. Usomashishini waseKhanada kunye nomseki weCirque du Soleil uGuy Laliberte wayengumkhenkethi wokugqibela wasemajukujukwini ngo-2009. Imvumi yaseBritane uSarah Brightman naye bekufanele ukuba ahambe ngo-2015, kodwa inqwelomoya yakhe yarhoxiswa ngenxa yezizathu ezingaziwayo.
