Russian Kliper not Funded by ESA

Posted by samzenpus on from the you're-cut-off dept.

anzha writes "It seems that while the Russians are making plans for the future, they are doing so alone. Space.com has an article profiling the Russian Kliper program. Largely seen as a response to the American CEV, the Russians had been stating the ESA would be supporting the enterprise as well. However, this week, ESA decided not to fund the project."

    I'm sure there's a joke in there involving KDE, Clippy and Soviet Russia just waiting to be made. But I'm not the one who's gonna do it.

    Any takers?
