Yeah too bad it only got to fly once though
Oh I thought that last letter was a "к" instead of "н" and I phonetically read "Barak" like Barack Obama.
The Soviet space program was one of the biggest losses of the fall of the USSR, they had some legitimately fascinating technologies, and were ahead of the west in many regards.
The meme is misused, the Buran program was newer, and in many ways more advanced than the Shuttle.
Well maybe this kid doesn't know that. Like when people trick kids into exchanging a quarter for five pennies or sonething.
I would download a space shuttle
Just maybe not that one
That one is automated though, you wouldn't need to leave Earth to use it. No astronaut training needed
In Soviet Russia space shuttles you
I was expecting a Skyline R34 for a second 😅
