BBC NEWS | Europe | Russia plans Mars nuclear station

Whilst the rest of the world is only slowly coming out of its technology shell its always good to know that Russian "Instituti" are still dreaming big. If however you are looking for a different view on spending on R&D and education try Here

A word of warning; Gaidar was acting Prime Minister in the Government in 1992. He and his team were affectionately known as "boys in pink trousers / shorts." A reference to their being slightly wet behind the ears politically. Easy to scoff from here, they were part of a transition that is looking OK from here - for now.

Quite what they are going to do with the power once its been built is not entirely clear - but then the value of alot of R&D was not either.
