The United Rocket and Space Corporation ((ロシア語:Объединенная ракетно-космическая корпорация)) or URSC〔 is a Russian joint-stock corporation formed by the Russian government in 2013 to renationalize the Russian space sector. The government intended to do so in such a way as to "preserve and enhance the Roscosmos space agency.〔 The reorganization has continued into 2014〔http://www.rosorkk.ru/URSC.pdf〕 with a Sberbank cooperation agreement. As of 2015 it is in the process of merging with the Russian Federal Space Agency to create the Roscosmos State Corporation. ==History== In announcing the new corporation in August 2013, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin said "the failure-prone space sector is so troubled that it needs state supervision to overcome its problems."〔 〕 The name for the organization had first been provisionally floated in July 2013 when—three days following the failure of a Proton M launch—the Russian government announced that "extremely harsh measures" would be taken "and spell the end of the () space industry as we know it."〔 〕 Rogozin indicated it would be "consolidate() under a single state-controlled corporation within a year."〔 〕 More detailed plans released in October 2013 called for a re-nationalization of the "troubled space industry," with sweeping reforms including a new "unified command structure and reducing redundant capabilities, acts that could lead to tens of thousands of layoffs."〔 The Russian space sector employs about 250,000 people, while the United States has about 70,000 people working in the field.〔 "Russian space productivity is eight times lower than America’s, with companies duplicating one anothers’ work and operating at about 40 percent efficiency."〔 〕 In December 2013 President Putin issued the presidential decree setting up the corporation. The decree stipulated that the corporation will take over manufacturing facilities from the Federal Space Agency (Roscosmos). The President of Energia, Vitaly Lopota was removed from his post as president on August 1, 2014. Dmitry Rogoziin indicated that this was the start of "Long-awaited personnel reform in (Russian ) space industry ... Tough times require tough decisions."〔 〕 In November 2014, it was announced that one part of the URSC charter is to increase the relative wages of those who work in the Russian space sector in order to attempt to counteract the low productivity and brain drain that has been hindering the industry. The average space industry employee is currently paid per month (, or approximately per year. URSC projects that the Russian space sector will employ 196,000 people by 2016, and has the long-term goal of increasing productivity threefold while doubling real wages by 2025.〔 〕 Despite Russian state efforts in the reorganization, two more Proton launch vehicle failures occurred in 2014 and 2015.〔 〕〔 〕 The government reorganized all of Russia's rocket engine companies into a single entity in June 2015. NPO Energomash, as well as all other engine companies, are now a part of URSC.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「United Rocket and Space Corporation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
