Talk:S.P. Korolev Rocket and Space Corporation Energia

RSC Engergia as the launch service provider for Soyuz U
Is it correct to characterize RSC Energia as the "launch service provider" for Soyuz U launches? Do they perform the same functions that e.g. United Launch Alliance provides for Delta II launches? (sdsds - talk) 05:59, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Redirects "RSC Energia", "RKK Energiya" and "RKK Energia"
About Korolev's former design bureau, what is toady known here on wikipedia as S.P. Korolev Rocket and Space Corporation Energia (it is complicated, bear with me).

It's historic names included:
 * Special Design Bureau number 1 of R&D Institute number 88 (Russian: ОКБ-1 НИИ-88 or OKB-1 of NII-88)
 * TsKBEM (*)
 * NPO Energia (*)
 * S.P. Korolyov RSC Energia

It's current name seems to be:
 * OAO S.P. Korolyov Rocket and Space Corporation Energia (Russian: Ракетно-космическая корпорация "Энергия" им. С.П.Королёва Raketno-kosmicheskaya korporatsiya "Energiya" im. S.P.Korolyova)

Or short:
 * Russian/Cyrilic: Ркк Энергия (Ракетно-космическая корпорация "Энергия")
 * Russian/Latin: RKK Energiya (Raketno-kosmicheskaya korporatsiya "Energiya")
 * Anglicized: RSC Energia (Rocket and Space Corporation "Energia")

Most of these contain several more or less helpful redirects (with and without various spelling "differences"). The problematic redirect (as it is used several times) seem to me to be "RKK Energia", which seems to be a mash-up between the anglicized Energia and the Russian/Cyrillic abbreviation Ркк, transposed to the Russian/Latin RKK (if I am not mistaken).

I would recommend using either RSC Energia or RKK Energiya, but not RKK Energia, but would ask someone to check if this is right.

Any thoughts on this?

(*) If anybody can contribute to the article what TsKBEM and NPO Energia stand for, it would be fabulous.
