Russian Speaking Space.
This autumn the programme Space Shuttle will become a part of the world manned cosmonautics' history. There are only two space shuttles' flights along the route Earth-ISS left. Nonetheless, no one is going to shut down works aboard the International Space Station. Time-tested and, above all, reliable Russian Soyuzes will be charged with the main load of supplying the orbital complex with all the necessary cargos and delivering crews onto its board. However, in order to fly safely aboard Russian spacecrafts American and European astronauts will have to add one supplementary subject to their educational background -- Russian language.
