Scientific paper
The status of extra-terrestrial astronomy and astrophysics in the USSR and abroad is compared and contrasted. The author complains that space astrophysics has been unjustifiably neglected by both scientists and information media as compared with astronomy using equipment on the ground. He notes that the USSR still has no institute of space astronomy, or astrophysical observatory-satellites comparable to the Copernicus, IUE and IRAS spacecraft of other countries, for example. The successful flight of Orion-2 in 1973 was not followed by further work in this direction, while not a single scientific article or other publication on results achieved with the space observatory Astron has appeared since it was launched 5 years ago.
