Wasn't that the second one? I thought Buran was left out exposed to the elements and was thought to be in a state of disrepair? Either way, it's a real shame that wasn't kept running too. It was larger and the Energia rocket could carry a larger payload. In conjunction with the NASA shuttles, it might have kept costs down, even though costs of the Space Program were relatively light to others.

Yes cost was down but still you can treat as wastage of money..Spending so much on exploring solar system is not good in my opinion..

Compared to military spending it really wasn't much at all.
