Soyuz TMA-1 was a Russian crewed spacecraft launched in 2002 to transport three astronauts—Kenneth Bowersox, Nikolai Budarin, and Donald Pettit—to the International Space Station. The mission marked the inaugural flight of the upgraded Soyuz TMA vehicle, which featured improved digital displays, lar...
Why this score
Successful debut of the upgraded Soyuz TMA supported ISS operations and improved crew accommodation; solid execution with limited standalone historical distinction.

GLONASS-K1 is the third generation of Russia's global navigation satellite system, first launched in 2011. Developed by ISS Reshetnev, it represents a significant design shift from previous models by utilizing an unpressurized spacecraft bus, which substantially reduces its overall mass. Operating i...
Why this score
Technically improved GLONASS generation with better design and signals, but slow deployment and constellation issues limit standing.

GLONASS-M is the second-generation modernized variant of Russia's GLONASS navigation satellites, introduced from 2003 onward, adding a second civil frequency and extending operational lifespan to seven years.
Why this score
Modernized GLONASS workhorse restoring Russian navigation coverage, useful but less accurate and stable than GPS or Galileo.

Resurs-P No.1 is a Russian civilian Earth observation satellite launched into orbit in 2013 to provide high-resolution imagery for environmental monitoring and resource management. Operated by Roscosmos, the satellite is equipped with advanced imaging payloads, including a 1-meter panchromatic camer...
Why this score
Capable Russian high-resolution civilian EO satellite with hyperspectral payload, useful but affected by uneven program reliability.

Elektro-L No.3 is a Russian geostationary weather satellite developed to provide continuous meteorological observations and data relay services. As the third satellite in the Elektro-L series, it operates over the Indian Ocean to monitor weather systems, climate dynamics, and environmental changes a...
Why this score
Improved Russian geostationary weather satellite with better relay and coverage, respectable but not globally leading.

ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter is a collaborative Mars mission launched in 2016 by the European Space Agency (ESA) and Roscosmos. It orbits Mars to study trace atmospheric gases, such as methane and water vapor, which could indicate geological or biological activity, while serving as a critical data rela...
Meteor-M No.2-2 is a Russian polar-orbiting meteorological satellite launched in July 2019. It was launched to replace its predecessor, Meteor-M No.2-1, which was lost during a launch failure in 2017. Operated by Roscosmos, the satellite provides crucial data for weather forecasting, including cloud...
Why this score
Operational Meteor-M replacement with valuable weather imagery, steady service but moderate international reputation.

Elektro-L No.2 is a Russian geostationary meteorological satellite launched on December 11, 2015, aboard a Proton-M rocket with a Briz-M upper stage from Baikonur Cosmodrome. It is the second spacecraft in the Elektro-L series operated by Roscosmos, designed to provide multispectral imagery of Earth...
Why this score
Solid Elektro-L continuation improving coverage, operationally useful but less capable than top contemporary geostationary imagers.

Meteor-M No.2 is a Russian polar-orbiting meteorological satellite launched in July 2014 to support operational weather forecasting and climate monitoring. Operated by Roscosmos, the satellite carries an array of advanced instruments, including microwave radiometers, infrared sounders, and multispec...
Why this score
Useful Russian polar meteorological satellite, but system reliability and data reputation trail NOAA and Metop counterparts.

Elektro-L No.1 is a Russian geostationary meteorological satellite launched in January 2011 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome. It represents the second generation of Russia's geostationary weather satellites and operates over the Indian Ocean region. The satellite is equipped with a multispectral scanner...
Why this score
Restored Russian geostationary weather capability, useful imagery, but reliability and modernization lagged leading peers.

Fobos-Grunt, also written Phobos-Grunt, was a Russian interplanetary spacecraft launched on 8 November 2011 to study and return a sample from Phobos, one of Mars's moons. The spacecraft reached low Earth orbit, but its propulsion stage failed to perform the burns needed to begin the journey to Mars,...
Why this score
Failed to leave Earth orbit and produced no Phobos science; commonly viewed as a major Russian planetary mission failure.
ui.x_scoring_methodologyFrequently Asked Questions
What leads the Roscosmos ranking?
Soyuz TMA-1 currently leads the Roscosmos results with a displayed score of 7.58/10. This is an editorial ranking result for the items included on this page, not a universal verdict for every use case.
How should I read the score and confidence label?
The 0 to 10 score is Lunoo's ranking judgment. Strong confidence means 10 or more recorded comparison checks, some means 2 to 9, and provisional means fewer than 2.
What supports this ranking?
Lunoo combines category fit, feature coverage, pricing and value signals, public reception, recency, and peer comparisons. Public source links support factual item details when available, but they are not required for membership in this 11-item ranking.
Can I compare the leading results for Roscosmos?
Yes. The comparison links put adjacent leaders side by side so you can inspect differences that one ranking score cannot capture.
