Watch Out! International Space Station To Crash Into The Pacific After 2020 Retirement
Better lay your millions on the table now and reserve your spot on the ISS now. Russia, NASA, and the rest of the ISS' partners announced today that they are going to allow the ISS to crash into the atmosphere after it's decommissioned in 2020. The reason? Space doesn't need more junk.The first ISS component launched in 1998 and has slowly grown into a large space station with 15 units. The original plan was to bring the ISS down in 2015 but the European Space Agency extended its life to 2020. But it can't stay up there forever.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/aX1_GrYZA5U/
