Moscow (AFP) Apr 12, 2006 - Russia could send men to the moon within nine years
and launch a manned mission to Mars by 2030, an industrialist said Tuesday, on
the eve of the 45th anniversary of the first space flight by cosmonaut Yury
Gagarin. "We can land on the moon before 2015," Nikolai Sevastianov, head of the
Russian space construction company RKK Energia, told reporters in Moscow.
