	Kliper (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Kliper is a spacecraft proposed in 2004 by Russian rocket and space company RKK Energia.
		Designed in the first place to replace the Soyuz, it is a reusable space plane without wings that glides into the atmosphere at an angle that produces much less acceleration on the human occupants than the current Soyuz.
		RKK Energia claims the craft would be able to land in a pre-determined one square kilometer area.

	RUSNET :: CIS Today :: 2005/08/02 :: Russians Still Proud of Soyuz Spacecraft
		When NASA grounded future shuttle flights last week, a senior Russian space official even proposed quickly building several Soyuz vehicles to evacuate the shuttle's crew of seven along with the two-man crew of the international space station in case the Discovery couldn't return.
		"If we work really hard, we can bring nine people down in January and February by three Soyuzes," said Nikolai Sevastyanov, head of the state-controlled RKK Energia rocket maker.
		The proposal was a bit hyperbolic -- the astronauts don't have food and water to last that long -- but it reflected the esteem Russian space officials have for their veteran spacecraft.
