The decision to resume tourist flights to the International Space Station (ISS) will be made after NASA decides on how long its shuttles can remain in service, said Anatoly Perminov, head of the Russian Space Agency (Roskosmos).

“We will consider space tourism in the context of the program of further missions. It is very important for us to know until which year shuttles will be used, and based on this information we will build our plans,” Perminov told journalists on Wednesday.
