The International Space Station is experiencing a rare situation with all eight docking ports occupied, including four by Russian vehicles, amid ongoing issues with Russia's launchpad which could delay future Soyuz missions. This situation raises concerns about crew transport and resupply, with potential increased reliance on NASA's commercial partners like SpaceX and Boeing, and questions about Russia's future involvement in the ISS as it approaches its deorbit around 2030.
