Here’s as good a time as any to pose this question: Why the heck do we allow the Russians to sell tickets to the ISS to space tourists?
They contributed nearly nothing to its construction (we even had to bail out and pay for the components the were supposed to supply) and yet we allow them to make millions selling ISS seats to American tourists.
Why?
And sadly, the ISS could disappear tomorrow amd no one on Earth would notice.
