Great! US and Russia working together for "peace".

Science is scienceing.

Bullshit. The Russians are sending up a spare to replace their busted-ass spacecraft.
Bugger-all coming together involved.
Freekydeeky1258 t1_ja1ssdq wrote
The article is even more useless. Perhaps 5 sentences dedicated to sending a new space craft capable of bringing the astronauts home. The rest is just legit astronomy related news: blackholes and what-not

ISS is a leftover from a time when such collaboration was possible. Putin’s genocidal regime must be crushed, and russia should not be invited to participate in whatever endeavor comes next to replace our aging space station. When that time comes let the ISS burn up over moscow I say.

The aliens still aren’t letting us into the galactic federation

Scienceing trumps politics. Hope that the new generations of Russians and Americans can keep this up once the confrontational Cold War era boomers die off.

As a boomer who stands with Ukraine, GFY. Slava Ukraini

As a boomer who witnessed the downfall of the Soviets, but then worked with the Russians at NASA, I have a strong opinion that you are full of shit.
PuzzleheadedKing5708 t1_ja20ub3 wrote
I meant the boomers who are now political leaders of Russia (hope they die off soon), not the boomers who think that the political invasion of a sovereign nation is wrong.
Slava Ukraini!

However, first we need to put a tile on Putin, then have ISS track to that tile. Drop the entire fucking thing right on top of him! Instantly World Peace achieved! LOL

I'm pretty sure peace is the last thing on Russia's mind. Failing to maintain their illusion that they're still a competent space power is the only thing they care about here. I.e. avoiding further embarrassment.

This is a pretty fucked opinion that is divorced from reality. Read up on interagency relations and the lack of politics among space administrtions.

Your opinion is divorced from reality.

And to think, if Russians are in space they’d be the first humans that aliens meet. We’ll be banned from the Milky Way

Ugh whenever I hear the phrase "something trump's something" I can't help but think of Donald Trump fml
vetus_turtur t1_ja2n5vp wrote
There are a lot of Russians who haven't reached retirement age that support Putin because the state controls the media. Stereotyping based on age is unhelpful.

Fuck off. Only Russia invaded Ukraine.

I understand your sentiment, but the scientific loss of the ISS would be significant. We have less costly things to drop on Putin's head if that is how we must deal with him.

He just says he is hoping for something though, not stating it.

Cooperation with the Russians on the ISS should've stopped when they brought up the Luhansk and Donetsk flag and claiming they've been liberated from Ukraine.

Hi! Post-Cold War kid here. Russia has given a whole new generation reasons to hate its guts. Arguably even worse than the Cold War era.

That's what I would say too if I just lost some very advanced technology to a bunch of antiquated jet fighters.

Makes me think of the Navajo prophecy. The whole “falling blue star that had people inside”. I wonder if it will burn blue on the way down 🤔

My father's lady friend has a son that works with NASA. He spends weeks at a time in Russia working with his equivalents there. They share a common dedication.

Who cares what’s the real reason behind it? They did send a spare one and there is a chance all three will come back alive. This is all that matters

Bugger all. Means very little. Australian / English vernacular.

The point is that the headline makes it sound like some altruistic joint mission with Russians and Americans pulling together in some heroic endeavour.
And this when Russia is in the middle of a ruinous war of aggression in Ukraine that pretty much the rest of the world condemns.
It has the effect of being pro Russian propaganda.
Tell it like it is.
Russia launches a capsule since the second one of theirs in a few months has sprung a leak at the ISS.

If we were capable of working with Stalin during the world war and then during the Cold War, we can work with Putin now.
BlakHearted t1_ja4xlb9 wrote
Gross, I wouldn’t be proud of working with Stalin. Might as well talk about how we could have worked with Mussolini. I guess I just prefer to work with nations that don’t rape women, murder the elderly, bomb apartment buildings, and cut the genitalia off of prisoners of war.

Weird place to put a monitor station, could have chosen a much prettier place like Saturn or Jupiter, the view of the rings there is awesome.

Gas giants are the galaxy’s version of a park you see one you seen them all. Plus this system doesn’t have a decent place to eat near it or a cool enough tourist trap.

You better stay on Pluto before we send another F-22 to welcome you to Earth.
