The US space agency Nasa announces now that the Biden-Harris administration in the White House has decided that the United States will continue its operations aboard the International Space Station, ISS, until at least 2030.
On the ground, NASA will continue its international research cooperation with the European Space Agency ESA, the Japanese Space Agency JAXA, the Canadian Space Agency CSA and the Russian Space Agency Roscosmos.
“The International Space Station is a beacon for peaceful international scientific cooperation that for over 20 years has resulted in tremendous scientific, educational and technological development that has helped humanity,” Nasa chief Bill Nelson said in a statement.
The United States has had a continuous presence on the space station for the past twenty years.
