Revamping the ISS: From Leaks to a Museum of Innovation

The International Space Station (ISS) faces a potential decommissioning plan by NASA to crash it into the Antarctic seas by 2030, but space experts like Madhu Thangavelu and former space agency leaders advocate for its preservation. They propose transforming the ISS into a floating museum at a higher orbit, utilizing SpaceX technology to extend its life. This initiative aims to maintain the ISS as a symbol of international cooperation and space diplomacy, while also exploring alternative strategies for NASA's lunar missions.
