Following Russia's decision to quit the International Space Station in 2014, lots of doomsday predictions are rising against Russia's future space program. I am not surprise the least bit.
Russia is planning to go on their own, building their new space station, but lots of cold water are now being thrown at the prospect of their ability. They forgot that Russia had been running the Space Station for decades and produced the first man in space. That is the mental sickness of the USA and the West. Always think they are above everyone else, until they wake up from their arrogance and find themselves about to be taken over. Then they start to throw spanners into the works of their opponents, or create fake accusations to stop them, like what they did to Japanese firm Toshiba and French company Alstom.
And the West is saying that Russia will now have to ride on the coat tails of the Chinese in their space program. This ostensibly is to create friction between China and Russia. Where are these people living on and on which planet, to say such things? Everyday they are spinning trash and rubbish that Russia is broke, not realising that Russia is now reaping in US$900 million a day in oil and gas sales. They are in fact selling oil to the USA via Saudi Arabia, at undiscounted prices mind you, which the Saudis bought from Russia at steep discounts.
By the way Putin's giddiness and nausea is even big news today. What a joke! I am sure one day he farted too many times and that will also be big news.

The USA wants to continue to run the run-down ISS. In other words they are unable to build any of their own to replace that. Knowing the USA, they die die must keep up pretence, rather than loose face. Good luck to them, but pray for those astronaut's safety on the ISS. In any case, such loss of lives will be taken as collateral damage, nothing more serious.
ReplyDeleteThey may resort to sabotage the Chinese Space Station using a proxy. Remember the Chinese space station had to move twice to avoid a collision with an Elon Musk Starlink satellite, in July and again in October. What can we read into that?
