News Russian Orbital Service Station

[MaxBuzz]

The National Russian orbital station will be created on the basis of modules: "NEM", "Uzlovoy Module", then two more modules will be added: a gateway module (GM) and a transformable module (TM). Thus, the entire station will consist of five modules, its mass will be 60 tons.
The station is planned for the first time in the history of the earth OS to bring to a high-tech orbit so that it can work in the interests of Russia, covering the entire globe, including the Arctic. For this, it will have to go on an increase in energy consumption in the conclusion in orbit and raising the level of radiation when the station is span through the polar regions

Seems like the station is a reimagination of the cancelled OPSEK station, and I think ROSS is the logical Russian successor to the ISS.

Uzlovoy Module

Do you mean the Prichal module attached to the ISS?

something mysterious but on topic

the cosmonaut' landing area may be the north pole
the rescue of cosmonauts will be handled by Rosatom fleet

Looks like a revival of the Kliper or a clone of Dream Chaser's initial design (2011)

Of the familiar technologies, only the spaceship "Progress" remains

Looks like some of the modules have some slight redesign....given that Progress is still planned to fly towards this station, does it mean there's no plans for a new cargo spacecraft anymore?

Basic module

Commercial module (By the way, the layout is the same as the ISS modules Zarya and MIR) (there is also an overview, as in the Cupola module)

MAKS?! Eh... looking closer it looks more like am Urgan derivative. Still, another spaceplane would be sweet, but I think they missed the mark when they scrapped the LKS for Buran.

 

[MaxBuzz]

modules that move themselves turned out to be more efficient than shuttles (by the way, each of them contains AI from Buran)

AI from Buran

I doubt Buran had AI....

I doubt Buran had AI....

During the descent, in order to dissipate kinetic energy, Buran, by means of a programmable change in roll, performed an extended S-shaped "snake", simultaneously implementing a lateral maneuver of 570 km to the right of the orbital plane. During the shift, the maximum roll value reached 104º to the left and 102º to the right.

(Buran's decision scared ground services)
