This is CBS, I Am The World, I'm John Bachelors.

The Cosmodrome, the most famous place on planet Earth for the rest of this century and

into the rest of the millennium.

This is where it begins.

The Cosmodrome launching men into space, once upon a time, then men and women.

And now these many decades responsible for carrying the load of two and from the ISS, except

the headline, Kazakhstan seizure of Russian space assets threatens the Soyuz-5 rocket.

Subhead Russia spent nearly a billion dollars on the development of the new Soyuz-5 rocket.

To unpack all this, I welcome Anatoliy Zakov, the Russian space web, a subscription site

I highly recommend.

Anatoliy diagrams and explains very carefully the most famous man space program ever.

And right now, the puzzle about Kazakhstan, an independent state, once upon a time, part

of the Soviet Union in Central Asia.

But now an independent state with oil wealth and natural gas wealth and enormous resources,

not many people, vast territory.

And that territory now claims bichen or Cosmodrome or not.

Anatoliy, a very good evening to you.

Can you clarify what this means for the Cosmodrome for its operations, for its plans to continue

to develop?

Good evening.

Hello, John.

Yes.
