As deputy head of the press centre of the Khrunichev Centre Andrei Gerbyshev reported, the distinguished guest will be shown the latest space developments. It is supposed that Kim Jong-il will familiarise himself with the new light-class boosters Angara and Rokot which are able to orbit space craft weighing up to two tons, pointed out Gerbyshev. The North Korean leader will also be shown the so-called Functional Cargo Block-2 which will be launched as a section for the International Space Station, as well as a new acceleration block Briz-M which puts apparatus on high orbits. The DPRK leader will visit the assembly workshop which produces the widely-known Proton boosters of a heavy class, the only rockets in the world capable of launching at a time a useful load of up to twenty tons. He will also be shown a copy of the Russian space station Mir, which has been recently de-orbited, and will have a chance to see its modules inside the station. As RIA Novosti was told in the Mission Control Centre, since the DPRK leader will arrive in the Centre after inspecting the apparatus created in the Khrunichev State Space Scientific and Industrial Centre, "his visit to us will last not more than an hour." Specialists from the Mission Control Centre intend to tell the guest about the history of the Centre's creation and to show him the scheme of communications with space craft and controlling them from the Centre. 2) THE NORTH KOREAN LEADER'S DEPARTURE FOR ST. PETERSBURG WILL NOT INCONVENIENCE PASSENGERS ================================================ MOSCOW, AUGUST 5, 2001. /RIA Novosti correspondent Natalia Gorbunova/ -- Nikolai Aksenenko, Minister of Railways of the Russian Federation, promises that the North Korean leader's departure for St. Petersburg by a special train will not inconvenience passengers on Sunday. Aksenenko said that there wouldn't be any problems "either for local suburban or for long-distance trains." In his words, all trains will run "according to schedule." Asked at what speed Kim Jong-il's special train will travel from Moscow to St. Petersburg, Aksenenko answered: "At a speed usually established for such a train." As the railways minister stressed, the North Korean leader's train is leaving Moscow at 11:00 p.m. (Moscow time) Sunday, so its late departure shouldn't inconvenience other passengers. 3) KIM JONG-IL VISITS KHRUNICHEV SPACE CENTRE =========================================== MOSCOW, AUGUST 5, 2001. /RIA Novosti correspondent/ -- Foreign reporters will have no access to the Khrunichev space centre which is being visited by North Korean leader Kim Jong-il, Pavel Martynov, a spokesman for the centre's security service, told reporters. Russian journalists had to go through metal detectors before entering the compound of the centre. Kim Jong-il is going to see two shops. In workshop 22, the Korean leader will have a look at and get on board the life-size model of the Mir space station. In the same shop, he will examine a Proton booster. The Korean delegation will then move to shop 7 to see light class booster rockets Rokot and Angara, and the Yakhta unified space platform used for telecommunications and remote earth sensing. 4) DPRK LEADER KIM JONG-IL VISITS MISSION CONTROL CENTRE ====================================================== KOROLEV (Moscow Region), AUGUST 5, 2001. /RIA Novosti correspondent Christina Rodrigues/ -- DPRK leader Kim Jong-il, who is in Russia on an official visit, on Sunday visited the Mission Control Centre (MCC) in the town of Korolev, Moscow Region. As a RIA Novosti correspondent reports, in the Centre the distinguished guest visited the so-called Blue Room where he was told about the history of the creation of the Centre and was shown the schemes of communicating with space objects and controlling them. He was shown a ten-minute documentary "One Day of a Cosmonaut" and a forty-second film about the last moments of operation of the Mir space station. Then, Kim Jong-il inspected the room from which the flights of the recently de-orbited Mir station were controlled. The head of the station, Vladimir Zubychev, told the North Korean leader the history of the creation of the complex. Kim Jong-il also visited the room from which the flight of the Russian segment of the International Space Station (ISS) is controlled. He was told about the work underway at the ISS. During the excursion in the Flight Control Centre the distinguished North Korean guest was accompanied by Vice-Premier Ilya Klebanov. Judging by everything, Kim Jong-il was very much satisfied with his visit to the Centre. After the excursion, he went to a variety concert. In the evening, at 11:00 p.m., Moscow time, the DPRK leader will leave Moscow for St. Petersburg from the Leningradsky Railway Station. 5) THE ULTRA RADICALS' CASES WILL BE HANDED OVER TO COURT ======================================================== MOSCOW, AUGUST 5, 2001. /RIA Novosti correspondent/ -- The cases of administrative infringes of the law with regard to six members of the ultra-right Transnational Radical Party will be handed over to the Nikulinsky Inter-Municipal Court of Moscow Monday. On Sunday, the right extremists tried to hold a non-sanctioned meeting outside the Embassy of North Korea in Moscow. So far, after drawing up appropriate documents the frantic radicals were allowed to go home. However, the infringers of the Russian Federation legislation on meetings, demonstrations, processions and pickets may be issued a warning or may face a fine to the tune of up to five minimum wages. Quite possible that already on Monday the court will pass its verdict. As was reported earlier, about 12:30 a.m., Moscow time, a small group of members of the ultra-right Transnational Radical Party gathered in front of the North Korean Embassy in Moscow in Mosfilmovskaya Street. The action of militant radicals was timed to the stay in the Russian capital of North Korean leader Kim Jong-il. This meeting was banned by the head of the Ramenki district authorities. 6) THE ULTRA RADICALS WERE DETAINED BY MILITIAMEN ================================================ MOSCOW, AUGUST 5, 2001. /RIA Novosti correspondent/ -- The law enforcers detained Sunday six members of the ultra-right Transnational Radical Party who tried to organise a non-sanctioned mini-meeting outside the Embassy of North Korea in Moscow. At first the militiamen, who were guarding the embassy, warned the people who gathered at the building about "administrative measures" that can be applied to them if they do not leave the place. However, the demonstrants, known for their radical and bellicose views on literally all the problems, refused to obey. Then, they were taken to the nearest militia station. No incidents took place. The meeting was held by several members of the party and did not attract the attention of the passers-by. The Radical Party has won a scandalous reputation in Moscow by sticking their leaflets and proclamations, in violation of all existing laws, on the walls of metro wagons and of newly repaired buildings. 7) KIM JONG-IL VISITING RUSSIA'S MISSION CONTROL CENTRE ==================================================== MOSCOW, AUGUST 5, 2001. /RIA Novosti correspondent/ -- After visiting the Khrunichev space centre, North Korean leader Kim Jong-il headed for the Space Mission Control Centre based in the town of Korolev, in the Moscow environs. While in the Khrunichev centre, Kim Jong-il visited workshop 22 where he climbed on board the life-size model of the Mir space station and examined a booster rocket Proton. In workshop 7, Khrunichev centre general director Alexander Medvedev showed the high Korean guest a light class booster Rokot, an Angara launcher, the Yakhta unified space platform used for telecommunications and remote earth sensing, etc. In the end, Medvedev presented Kim Jong-il with a souvenir - a tiny composition depicting a Proton booster, the Globe and the Russian flag against the background of a starry sky. The director expressed hope that the North Korean leader liked the Khrunichev centre and its products. 8) KIM JONG-IL TOURS KHRUNICHEV WORKSHOPS ========================================== MOSCOW, AUGUST 5, 2001. /RIA Novosti correspondent/ -- North Korean leader Kim Jong-il has made a visit to the Khrunichev space centre Sunday. He was in workshop 22 examining a life-size model of the Mir space station. Then, the Korean leader and the delegation escorting him moved to workshop 7 to see a booster rocket Proton, as well as light class boosters Rokot and Angara. Also displayed in that shop is the Yakhta unified space platform used for telecommunications and remote earth sensing. After that Kim Jong-il was presented with a souvenir - a tiny composition showing a Proton, the Globe and the Russian flag against the background of a starry sky. ------------------------ Yahoo!
