K.E. Tsiolkovsky State Museum of the History of Cosmonautics will be reorganized into the National Museum of Cosmonautics, Interfax reports with reference to the head of Administration for tourism development of the Culture Ministry of Kaluga Region, Pavel Konovalov.

"Space is what we are really proud of. Thanks to the Moscow government Buran located at the Gorky Park will be handed over to our museum for free in order to make an interactive museum out of it. Federal Space Agency and Rosenergo are interested in this move, because it will help children learn more about space", - Pavel Konovalov said adding that this is a very interesting project both for kids and grown-ups.
