🇷🇺🇨🇳🇮🇳 India’s strategic rival China has already made advances in maintaining a sustained human presence in orbit and the learning curve for India appears steep.
Only collaboration with Russia can give India a leg up and may perhaps be the only path for India to catch up to China in any meaningful way, writes Aditya Pareek, Research Analyst at the Bangalore-based Takshashila Institution.

🚀 2021 was a real breakthrough year in private, commercial space travel.
Here, on the one hand, we observed a semblance of an “arms race” between several Western billionaires (Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson), each of whom actively promoted their projects.
On the other hand, this race has become almost a vanity fair over who would be the first to launch their private crew.
What should be the optimal strategy for further space exploration? What are the goals?
Undoubtedly, this will push technological progress forward. It will undoubtedly be very expensive. And there’s no doubt it will be a vanity fair again, writes Valdai Club Programme Director Oleg Barabanov.

🌔 The term “moon race” appeared long ago, at the dawn of the space age, and from the very beginning acquired a pronounced geopolitical dimension.
It reflected the great, perhaps unnecessarily great symbolic importance that was attached to primacy in space, if you look at the situation in retrospect.
The Soviet Union was the first nation to launch an artificial Earth satellite into orbit and the first to send a man into space. The Americans responded by landing their astronauts on the moon.
Deep space exploration programmes are again accompanied by geopolitical competition. Apparently, this situation is inevitable.
Valdai Club Programme Director Oleg Barabanov writes about the Lunar race and world politics.
