[43], Development of the Vostochny Cosmodrome is expected to have a positive impact on the economy of the relatively poorly developed Russian Far East. [13] However, Roscosmos announced in November 2014 a postponement, saying that the first unmanned test mission of Angara would not launch until 2021.
The number of employees at the facility by the end of 2012 was projected to increase from 5,000 to 7,000.[26].

In April 2013, Minister of Far Eastern Development Viktor Ishayev said that 2014 will be the busiest year in the construction period and the number of workers will rise to 7,000. 14 cosmonauts of 13 other nations, such as Czechoslovakia, East Germany, India and France, started their historic journeys from here as well under the Interkosmos program. Baikonur is fully equipped with facilities for launching both manned and unmanned spacecraft.

Now we are going to show you some of images made therе before the collapse of the USSR. The first launch of a Soyuz-2 rocket from Vostochny took place on 28 April 2016. Although Baikonur has always been known around the world as the launch site of Soviet and Russian space missions, from its outset in 1955 and until the collapse of the USSR in 1991, the primary purpose of this center was to test liquid-fueled ballistic missiles.

The explosion incinerated or asphyxiated Nedelin, a top aide, the USSR's top missile-guidance designer, and over 70 other officers and engineers. The rocket, Soyuz-2.1a, was planned to launch in December 2015. Other arguments for choosing this location include the ability to use sparsely populated areas and bodies of water for the rocket launch routes; proximity to major transportation networks such as the Baikal-Amur Mainline, the Chita-Khabarovsk highway; abundance of electricity production resources in the area; and the presence of the infrastructure of the former Svobodny Cosmodrome, on which the new spaceport will be based. [22][23] Russian engineers looked to apply knowledge gained from building the Soyuz launch facilities in Kourou spaceport and the Angara pad at Naro Space Center in South Korea.

It remained under control of the Soviet and Russian Ministry of Defense until the second half of the 1990s, when the Russian civilian space agency and its industrial contractors started taking over individual facilities. Construction of the first launch complex, Spring 2013.

A restored artifact from the Soviet Buran programme, possibly the Buran shuttle that was tested and orbited on a single unmanned spaceflight, sits right next to the museum entrance. Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan has been the launch site for Soviet and Russian space missions since the beginning of space exploration in 1957. As a cost-saving measure, no defensive military structures like those at Baikonur cosmodrome will be built at Vostochny. The Vostochny Cosmodrome (Russian: Космодром Восточный Kosmodrom Vostochny "Eastern Spaceport") is a Russian spaceport (still partly under construction) above the 51st parallel north in the Amur Oblast, in the Russian Far East. The new site is intended mostly for civilian launches. [44], In November 2012, press reports indicated that the Russian government is having difficulty in finding a good use for the new spaceport, and that other government ministries have been avoiding the project, calling it a "dolgostroy", which is Russian for an "endless construction boondoggle". In a draft strategy, which was presented at a meeting of the club of friends of the cluster space technology and telecommunications fund "Skolkovo" and published in the official fund microblog on Twitter said that in 2011 the share of space launches from Russia's territory stands on 25% only and by 2030 this figure will stand on 90%. (Another, similar looking artifact was destroyed in a hangar collapse in 2002; which artifact, if either, actually flew into space, and which is a model, prototype, or test bed is disputed.)
As noted at the meeting, the number of workers and organizations each month will only increase, and therefore requires strict control. It supports several generations of Russian spacecraft: Soyuz, Proton, Tsyklon, Dnepr, Zenit and Buran. Both cottages are part of the museum complex and have been preserved. Other sources state that "Baikonur" was a name of the Tyuratam region even before the cosmodrome existed. According to Russian prosecutors, at least $165 million was embezzled during the construction process (critics claim that these numbers are severely downplayed), and in 2015, 350 workers painted giant messages on their barracks, asking Vladimir Putin to help after long payment delays.

The mass of Buran is quoted as 62 tons, with a maximum payload of 30 tons, for a total lift-off weight of 105 tons.. Mass breakdown.

The new cosmodrome will enable Russia to launch most missions from its own land, and reduce the dependency of Russia on the Baikonur Cosmodrome which is leased from the government of Kazakhstan. As of November 2013[update], more than 4,000 personnel, 680 pieces of construction equipment and vehicles were working at the site. On 23 January 2019, Roscosmos cancelled the agreement with the troubled PSO Kazan company to build the launch pad for the Angara rocket in Vostochny. In August 2010 he said, "The creation of a new space center... is one of modern Russia's biggest and most ambitious projects". Satellites bound for geostationary orbit and high inclination orbits can be currently launched from Plesetsk Cosmodrome in northwestern Russia. The railway is used for all stages of launch preparation, and all spacecraft are transported to the launchpads by the special Schnabel cars. When completed, the cosmodrome will permanently employ 20,000-25,000 people. The Russian government has a strategic policy to bring high-tech companies into the Far East region, and several enterprises involved in human space flight are expected to move their activities there when the new cosmodrome is completed. The primary payloads were two Russian government Earth observation satellites, Kanopus-V 5 and 6. Russian engineers are looking to apply the knowledge gained from building the Soyuz launch facilities in Kourou spaceport and the Angara pad at Naro Space Center in South Korea.
