New Home for Buran OK ML 1 Baikonur Cosmodrome Area 2 .
Repaired June 15th 2008
The last time I saw this Buran (which is an engineering mockup, as the actual flown vehicle was destroyed in a construction accident), it was out in the middle of nowhere, not far from an RSC Energia facility that's near the facility that processes Soyuz vehicles for ISS. Now this vehicle is situated right next to the Gagarin Museum at the Baikonur cosmodrome. It's kind of unsettling to come out of the building and find this right next door. alexpgp |

OK-M The test shuttle OK-M was moved few days ago from the area 254, to be parked near the Baikonur’s museum (area 2). May be it will be restored or stocked in better conditions. SOURCE: Buran Energia
