Novosti Kosmonavtiki magazine has a new all-Russian website which, once
fully operational, will make it possible to download a complete on-line
version of the latest issue.

Clicking on http://www.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru  will take you to the home
page, which gives you the option of going to the following pages :

- "novosti" (news) : apparently a site for the latest space news, but my
computer gets hung up whenever I try to open it. Maybe others are more
successful.

- "novyy nomer" (latest issue) : here you can completely download the latest
issue of Novosti Kosmonavtiki. However, right now only issue nr. 7 is
available (while the most recent one is nr. 10). The plan seems to be to put
all back issues on-line as well (click on "arkhiv" - archive), but this site
clearly is still under construction. Issue nr. 7 can be downloaded for free,
but
I'm not sure if this will still be the case once this site is completely
operational.

- "redaktsiya" ("editorial staff") : pictures of some of the editors clad in
Sokol pressure suits!

- "forum" : apparently a site allowing you to send e-mails to Novosti
Kosmonavtiki with your comments. There seems to be an archive of e-mail
messages on this site, but clicking on the hyperlinks only gives you the
e-mail
address of the person who sent the message, not the message itself. The
purpose of this is not entirely clear to me.

Maybe Igor Lisov can tell us more about the site?
