On September 14, Dmitry Rogozin, Russian Aerospace director, very much hoped that Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX, could come home. He has also repeatedly invited musk to Kazakhstan to attend the launch of three Russian astronauts aboard the Soyuz ms-19 spacecraft to the international space station on October 5 p> < p > recently, Rogozin invited musk to visit his home in Russia in an interview. Rogozin said: "we respect him. He is an organizer of the aerospace industry and an inventor who is not afraid of adventure." Rogozin welcomed musk to "become a guest in my family" and discuss issues such as "exploring the universe, alien life and how we use space to protect Earth's life" p> < p > "I've warmed up the teapot," Rogozin added p> < p > but musk did not make it clear. It is difficult to say whether musk will visit Russia or attend Kazakhstan's launch p> < p > the relationship between Rogozin and musk has not been optimistic since he became the director of the Russian space agency in 2018. Rogozin often does not recognize the success of SpaceX. He said SpaceX engineers were too gentle, or their rockets and spacecraft were not safe enough for Russian astronauts p> < p > at the same time, Rogozin saw that SpaceX had a great impact on the important source of income of Russia's aerospace industry. Most notably, the success of the manned dragon spacecraft has stopped NASA from paying about $400 million a year for astronaut transportation services to the Russian space agency. In addition, SpaceX lobbied the U.S. Congress to authorize to prevent the joint launch Alliance (ULA) from purchasing rd-180 rocket engines from Russia. The low-cost Falcon 9 rocket has affected the commercial launch business of Russian proton rockets. Russian proton rockets used to be the main rockets, but now they are launched only once a year p> < p > so why does Rogozin want to have a good relationship with musk now p> < p > first of all, if Rogozin can let musk go to Russia, he and Russia's space program will be more brilliant. Musk appreciated the rocket technology of the former Soviet Union and recently spent an hour at SpaceX headquarters to meet with the grandson of Sergei Korolev, a former Soviet rocket scientist. By meeting musk, Rogozin can give important publicity to Russia's space program p> < p > for Rogozin, attracting musk to participate in the upcoming Soyuz launch may be equally important. This is because Rogozin and the Russian space agency have invested heavily in the launch. The flight will be commanded by astronaut Anton shkaplerov and will carry actress Yulia peresild and film director Klim shipenko. The two will spend about 10 days on the international space station to shoot a space film called challenge p> < p > on the 60th anniversary of Yuri Gagarin's historic first space flight in April 1961, Rogozin was eager to show something, so this space film was also a major event led by him p> < p > earlier this year, senior astronaut Fyodor yurchikhin said in an interview: "this project is to demonstrate Russia's space technology and attract the world's attention to the 60th anniversary of Gagarin's space flight." "therefore, it must be completed before April 12, 2022." < / P > < p > for Rogozin, Shooting the first space film will represent another "historic first" for Russia in the field of space. Allowing musk to attend the launch of the challenge film project will undoubtedly bring more attention to Rogozin. (Chen Chen) < / P > < p >
