"We need to test the safety of this system, because if we do that, we could become even more dangerous, and the test will be a disaster," Rogozin said.

"This is not a question of when. This is a question of the future," Rogozin said.

The new system, which has an altitude of approximately 3.7,000 kilometers, features a pair of four-pronged parachutes attached to the front and rear wings. In the case of the two parachutes, the pilots of one parachute and the pilots of a second parachute are in the same position.

These parachutes are intended to allow the pilots to land safely on the ground without breaking limbs. The parachutes are also intended to allow the pilot to land safely in case of a crash.

"With this system, we can land safely, not with a crash," Rogozin said.

The new system is not being flown by a single crew member. The goal is to test this system at less than 100 kilometers from the ISS while carrying a crew of 3,000. Rogozin said the spacecraft will also have an extra two parachutes to use against the risk of a crash.

The new system will be developed by Russia's Roscosmos and Russian space agency, Roscosatom.

The company said its engineers will review the project, which it hopes to complete by 2023.In this Oct. 23, 1999, file photo, President Bill Clinton speaks at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia. (AP Photo/Charles Rex Arbogast, File)

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Senate is likely to pass a bill Wednesday to cut the federal deficit by $1.4 trillion by 2025, even as economic growth has stalled.

A bill that includes a $1.4 trillion increase in the federal budget for 2016 would create $5 trillion in new jobs during that period. A separate legislation that includes the $1.5 trillion in savings would save the government about $7.6 billion.

The Senate's budget resolution, the so-called Stop the War on Drugs, would have eliminated most of the $500 billion in spending on the war on drugs. The bill would provide $9.8 billion in aid, plus $2.2 billion for infrastructure and $1.6 billion for other assistance.
