The Course of the Former Soviet Union's Astronavigational Development (I),

Abstract

In recent years, the western press has revealed a great deal behind the scenes of the development of astronavigational technology in the former Soviet Union. Recently, they have also begun to carry out a new evaluation with regard to the course of astronavigational development in the former Soviet Union. In the past, organizational structures associated with astronavigational activities in the former Soviet Union have been relatively secret all along. People knew very little with respect to the command systems associated with the former Soviet Union's space projects. Normally, one relied on guesses and analysis. There was a lack of a foundation of reliable facts. However, recently published former Soviet and Russian official references have filled in the gaps in this area. Beginning with this number, this magazine will publish by decade, one after the other, the state of relevent areas associated with the astronavigational development of the former Soviet Union in order to provide readers a reference.
