The Iernational Space Station eers its most dangerous period, and NASA is deeply concerned about its safety.
According to RCO News Agency, The sick situation of the Iernational Space Station (ISS) as a tragic indicator of priorities change among the reports of the Trump administration’s planning to reduce NASA’s budget by 5 %.
For years, NASA has emphasized old and budgetary hardware concerns about the Iernational Space Station, and at prese, during a general aerospace safety consultation session (ASAP), NASA officials said they were deeply concerned about reducing the safety of the orbital station.
According to IA, the delegation poied to long -term problems including tires and air leakage as well as a lack of funding. They called for further funding to facilitate the completion of the Iernational Space Station operations and preve unpopular and catastrophic exit.
Iernational Space Station eers its most dangerous period
At the meeting, its members emphasized the increasing dangers that the Iernational Space Station is facing.
The presence of cracks and gaps at the space station has been a long -term concern. Over the years, air leakage has also preveed its full operation.
NASA is currely planning to remove the Iernational Space Station by year 5. For this reason, the private space company has been coracted to develop the US -based departure vehicle (USDV) to remove the Iernational Space Station safely.
However, SpaceX CEO Ilan Musk may accelerate the process. He recely advised NASA to remove the space station sooner.
On the other hand, when it comes to NASA’s budget cut by US Preside Donald Trump, Mask has also stated that it cannot be involved in the dispute because of the conflict of ierest.
While the NASA’s safety delegation condemns the lack of funding, their new report may help the mask to coinue its way.
“The Iernational Space Station has eered its most dangerous period,” said Rich Williams, a member of the delegation.
Rising list of concerns
The delegation emphasized the increased risk of prolonged problems. These include leakage in the Zvezda space station called PRK. US and Russian experts have examined them for years without meioning the source of these leaks.
According to Williams, the NASA safety committee has considered this as one of our biggest concerns.
He added that NASA and Ruskosmus (Russian Space Agency) will meet in Moscow at the end of this moh to discuss investigations as well as update efforts to reduce the dangers.
Managers of the Iernational Space Station are taking precautions. They have limited pressures in the PRK corridor, which connects a connection port to the station.
The rise of rising exit from the emergency circuit
The safety committee also discussed the emergency exit poteial of the Iernational Space Station from the circuit before the USDV deployme of the SpaceX, as the uncorollable exit of the Iernational Space Station from the circuit could be catastrophic, as compones from the remains of the space station may be on the area.
Williams warned: If the Iernational Space Station is out of the circuit before the USDV delivery, the risk will increase for the general public.
The delegation emphasized the need for a strong budget with approaching the end of the Iernational Space Station’s operational life. This is of particular importance given the fact that rece reports show that Trump iends to drastically reduce the NASA budget.
“Overcoming all these risks requires funding,” Williams said. All of these risks are actually derived from this lack of funding.
NASA spe $ 5 million last year on the Iernational Space Station’s operations and maienance and $ 1.5 billion for crew and shipping.
The delegation warned that the Iernational Space Station may face budget problems related to the cost of the USDV SpaceX.
They say the delegation has serious concerns that if the funding required for USDV and support launch infrastructure (more than $ 1 billion) is funded only from the existing iernational space station’s budget, it will put NASA’s ability to safely carry out the iernational space station.
Williams explained: Since programs are approaching the final stages, it is tempting to assume fewer resources should be available. For the Iernational Space Station, it is critical to maiain sufficie funding and resources uil the station is safely removed from the circuit.
