The Baikonur Cosmodrome is an international space center in the center of Kazakhstan , 370 km from the town of the same name, located in a place intended to deceive the attention of Western spies during the Cold War era. Russia is known for its seat-of-pants conquest of space, rivaling the United States in this regard. And after 50 years of space exploration, the Russians have accumulated a number of spacecraft and museums recovering quickly filled. There seems no other choice but to leave some abandoned. Here are two forgotten space shuttle OK-MT from the Buran program in a hangar at Baikonur.

UPDATED: Unfortunately the most recent photos of this particular soviet space shuttle Buran are here and here. RIP Buran. Maybe there is another secret Soviet shuttle out there somewhere, only waiting to be discovered by some intrepid explorer with a camera?
