The Buran space shuttle made its triumphant flight on November 15, 1988. It circled the Earth twice and made the first ever automatic landing of a winged spacecraft on the landing complex of the Baikonur Cosmodrome.
This event was the crowning achievement of the most complex Russian cosmonautics program, which began in the mid-1970s. We can safely say that the Energia-Buran reusable space system program has become the largest space project in our history.
