New Russian Spaceport

The Russian Federation is planning a new space port, the Vostochny Cosmodrome, at Amur Oblast, in the Russian Far East.

Construction is planned to start in 2010 although a feasability study has still to determine it's exact location.

The site will reduce the Russian Federations dependence on the Baikonur cosmodrome located in neighbouring Kazakhstan.
