Living up to the standards of the Russian space station in the Armageddon movie.
- coldtea 8y agoAs opposed to that other great American space station?
- chopin 8y ago"Welcome to the craft where all parts are made by the lowest bidder" is the one citation I remember. The Russians were greeted this way.

- mmjaa 8y agoIs this kind of derision really necessary? Americans are just as capable of making stupid mistakes, and have - many times over - during the course of their space program. This story should be about how American astronauts and Russian cosmonauts have demonstrated time and again that they are more than capable of working together to do amazing things, in spite of the nationalistic jingoism currently ripping the American political sphere apart in its efforts to create a new bad guy to hate. But, no: its a two-minutes hate session for Westerners to pile on Russia. Again.
