Space duo: Russia invites China to create joint lunar station

Moscow may team up with Beijing to create a scientific station on the Moon. The challenge for Russia is to build its own space station by 2024 to achieve its lunar exploration goals.

According to Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin, who supervises defense-related policies, the question on “bringing China in as the main partner in creating a lunar scientific station,” is currently being discussed with Roscosmos.
