okay, and? space is shit, they're wasting their money. Fuck off
Michael Foster
They're going to de-orbit the ISS in 2031 anyway
Nathan Thomas
Why? It's pretty apparent space stations are just a money pit at our current scientific level. Has any meaningful tech come out of the ISS?
In other words, I wish the Russians the best of luck and hope they make a massive investment in there new space paperweight.

kek. does the US or Europe have the lift capability to keep Mir up and running? can it even be salvaged after that crazy bitch we sent up there shit all over the inside and irradiated it?
Jason Smith
It's this
Not sure if the know-how of making orbital habitats will ever be relevant, but when the moment comes that it is, knowing how to do it will put you a leg above other nations. That's why China is making their own station now.
Only relevant, material thing I can see in the future that this might be important for is capturing and mining meteors for rare metals. So it's important to think of these space stations as elaborate diving bells.

So we are gonna get to use the Space Force, right?

Link?

The chinks put their station in an orbit that cant be reached by any Russian launch sites.
Noah Gonzalez
The ISS was built by Russians though?
Why are you so full of seething?
Where's the norway space station if you could do better?
Thomas Sullivan
Eh, they fucked up when they brought the US Astronaut back with them. Should have left him on the station, then the Biden administration would have been forced to waste billions on saving a single life, rather than funding the war in Ukraine.
Matthew Williams
What's hilarious is I doubt NASA can do the same. It's a woke factory at this point.
Juan Morris
wasn't half of ISS russian built moduls?
Dylan Long
Yep.
Russians can’t in space without Ukraine.

Not a single white poster on this board anymore. Lol
The world is falling into superstition and darkness just like he said
Jason Brown
like MIR? first modular space station? or maybe like all those rockets used by the west to reach and move astronauts to its space station?
Ayden Cox
It's going to fall directly on you
