Here is the transcript:
Программа «Энергия» — «Буран» стала знаковым проектом в истории советской космонавтики. Это была многоразовая транспортная космическая система (МТКС), созданная как ответ на американскую программу «Спейс шаттл». «Энергия» — «Буран» была одной из двух реализованных в мире систем такого типа.
The "Energia" — "Buran" program was a landmark project in the history of Soviet space exploration. It was a reusable transport space system (RTSS), developed as a response to the American Space Shuttle program. "Energia" — "Buran" was one of only two such systems ever implemented in the world.
Единственный полёт корабля «Буран» состоялся 15 ноября 1988 года. Он прошёл в полностью беспилотном режиме. Программа стартовала в 1974 году, но уже в 1993 году работы по проекту были официально прекращены. Главными конструкторами системы были Юрий Павлович Семенов, ответственный за разработку «Бурана», и Борис Иванович Губанов, руководивший созданием ракеты-носителя «Энергия».
The only flight of the "Buran" spacecraft took place on November 15, 1988, in a fully unmanned mode. The program was launched in 1974, but by 1993, work on the project was officially terminated. The chief designers of the system were Yuri Pavlovich Semenov, responsible for developing the "Buran," and Boris Ivanovich Gubanov, who led the creation of the "Energia" launch vehicle.
Программа обошлась бюджету в 14 миллиардов рублей. Сюда не входят дополнительные расходы на постройку самого «Бурана», ракеты-носителя и запуск. По другим оценкам, общая стоимость программы достигала 16,5 миллиардов рублей.
The program's cost was significant for the state budget—14 billion rubles. This estimate does not include additional expenses for constructing the "Buran" spacecraft, the launch vehicle, and the actual launch. According to other estimates, the total cost of the program reached 16.5 billion rubles.
