I had to complain when it was sent to some media - but not others by NASA's crack PAO office.

It took NASA PAO a full work day to send a "we know nothing" response with regard to Russia's latest announcement. NASA has not been made aware of decisions from any of the partners, though we are continuing to build future capabilities to assure our major presence in low-Earth orbit." Keith's note: I got this from NASA PAO at 5:11 pm EDT: "NASA is committed to the safe operation of the International Space Station through 2030, and is coordinating with our partners.

SpaceX's Crew Dragon means NASA no longer needs Russia for astronaut transportation. But Russia's role in this cooperation has receded lately. "You were getting this robustness, and everybody learned that there was another way of doing things," says Keith Cowing, editor of the NASA Watch news site and a former NASA manager who worked on station components in the early 1990s. "The real question is, what are the Russians going to leave behind if they just walk away from the station?" Cowing added."Ī Russian ISS exit could give NASA a hangover-then leave cosmonauts grounded, Fast Company Russia's war on Ukraine, and NASA no longer needing Russian rockets to send astronauts into orbit, has changed a long-running, uneasy, partnership in space, making it look less and less tenable. "The long isolation of ISS from geopolitics looks like it is regretfully coming to an end," said NASA Watch Editor Keith Cowing. Russia says it's leaving the International Space Station again. The assurance on Tuesday from Russia came after the newly appointed head of its space agency, Roscosmos, surprised NASA earlier in the day by announcing that Moscow intended to end more than two decades of partnership on the space station "after 2024." counterparts that Moscow expects to remain on the International Space Station at least until their own outpost in orbit is built in 2028, NASA's space operations chief told Reuters.
