Expansion of Rust language application in aerospace sphere.

Rust already widely applied for hard real-time systems - DAW (digital audio workstation), HFT (high frequency trading), industrial system, but also for automotive and aerospace vehicle systems, like autopilots, space orientation and telemetry. In such systems a stable latency and reaction time should be provided, which means every operation should take only exact amount of time.

And now the new hard real-time subsystem (with more wide abilities than Linux RT patch-set) for Linux, RROS, which working along with Linux kernel, is used for running real-time software for on-board systems on the new recently launched China satellite.

'Cause Rust gives a system access level to work with the hardware, same as C language provides, but also powerful yet simple abstractions and smart-pointers, as C++ language provides.
