2009 January The Koronas Foton is launched as a science mission.<w:Roscosmos>
2011 January New weather satellite Elektro L is launched.<w:Roscosmos>
2011 July Spektr R (RadioAstron) is launched.<w:Roscosmos>
2013 January Roscosmos announces process of designing and building a replacement for its ageing Soyuz rocket and space capsule system, with the aim of putting it into operation by 2020.

2013 March 16 NASA astronaut Kevin A. Ford, together with Oleg Novitskiy and Evgeny Tarelkin of Roscosmos, return safely to Earth aboard Soyuz TMA-06M capsule which landed on the Kazakhstan steppe, after a five-month mission in the International Space Station.[4][5][6][7]
2013 April 19 Roscosmos launches its Bion-M1 space capsule into orbit packed with mice, geckos, gerbils, snails and fish, to begin a month-long experiment to study how space travel affects living creatures. Bion-M1 is Russia's first mission dedicated to launching animals into space in 17 years.[8][9]

2015 The Russian government merges Roscosmos with the United Rocket and Space Corporation, the renationalized Russian space industry, to create Roscosmos State Corporation.<w:Roscosmos>
2015 Spektr UV (Ultra Violet, 2016) is launched.<w:Roscosmos>
2015 Elektro P is launched.<w:Roscosmos>
2015 January Igor Komarov becomes Director.<w:Roscosmos>
2015 December 28 The Corporation is established on the basis of the now-defunct Federal Space Agency. Roscosmos was previously known as the Russian Aviation and Space Agency.<w:Roscosmos>
