Stunning images of Russia's forgotten space program - New York Post
Two flight units of the Buran Soviet/Russian reusable space shuttle program lay abandoned amongst a crumbling hangar.
On November 15, 1988, a Buran space shuttle made two circles around the Earth's orbit and landed at the Yubileiny airfield at Baikonur Cosmodrome.
