| 1485109 | 2022-03-23 19:42:00 | Will it crash into Aus like the previous one :) By the year 2031 , will the chinese be the only country able to afford a space station ? Any US replacement will be bogged down by US politicians changing requirements & budget every 4 years . Perhaps we'll see smaller , privately owned space stations ? And will NASA be building anything by 2021. Look at the financial disaster their new large rocket & crewed capsule have been. Still not ready after so many years . Private companies have overtaken NASA in rocketry & manned space travel . The question needs to be asked , what did the space station ACTUALLY achieve. Beggar all, no major scientific breakthroughs from the ISS . |

They have been saying that since the 80's . :) Wont happen. The SLS is bogged down by huuuuge cost overuns & political interference. 1 disaster & it will all be canned . Going to the moon & mars is simply too risky . A solar flare will fry any astronauts on the way there The SLS is simply too expensive to use , as private companies are making re-usuable systems . Nasa only went to the moon to 1 up the Russians . When China gets a base on the Moon, then USA will act , pull finger & go back to the moon. |

| 1485113 | 2022-03-24 07:53:00 | Well, if governments can't afford a space station, then Elon and SpaceX will show them up with one of their own soon enough. They've already done the hard part, making a reusable docking vehicle. Building modules for it to dock to will be childs play by comparison. |
