- Abstract
At present Roscosmos has Intergovernmental Agreements on cooperation in space activities with more than 19 countries. This list includes USA, Japan, India, Brazil, Sweden, Argentina and ESA countries. Roscosmos interacts with Canada, USA, Japan and ESA countries in the framework of Intergovernmental Agreement of January, 29, 1998. Most of the above-mentioned Agreements imply creation and further safe utilization of space systems and complexes by certain programs and different branches. The successful realization of space missions depends on co-ordinated interaction of cooperation, integration and operability of decision tasks for preparation and control of flight systems, and regulated access of scientific society to payload information which is the main result of space activities. It should be noted that International Mission Control Centres are the most important and complicated instruments of space exploration which provide the complexity of task decision during the control of dissimilar constellations. The principles of establishing and development of the Russian Mission Control Centre ensure possibility of its operative integration in the distributed control system of space exploration. The main cooperation lines of space exploration for establishing of the world-wide distributed control system of space complexes are as follows: \begin{itemize}\item development of international distributed management facilities of space vehicles already partially realized during the ISS control;\end{itemize} \begin{itemize}\item creation and development of detection means of hazardous situations and international common database of space objects catalogues in the near-earth space and providing its high availability;\end{itemize} \begin{itemize}\item creation and development of international databank of scientific information and providing its high availability for the world scientific community;\end{itemize} \begin{itemize}\item creation and development of international space data relay system with elaboration of regulations for the use of its resources;\end{itemize} \begin{itemize}\item securing the required level of failure-resistance of international control facilities, payload information receiving and processing facilities;\end{itemize} \begin{itemize}\item establishing of the international further training for the specialist of mission control centres;\end{itemize} \begin{itemize}\item collaborate research and complex innovation in space. activities\end{itemize} Phased implementation of the major cooperation lines allows increasing the efficiency of receiving and utilization of space activity results, decreasing the expenses for maintenance and service of space objects and also consolidating the international cooperation lines during space exploration.- Abstract document
