Feels like folks are not making enough money maintaining the existing space station, so they need to get rid of it to make way for the next $100B space station

- panick21_ 2y agoExcept that if you actually bother to look at the current plan, NASA wants to invest much less in the next generation station. Private companies will run and operate them. NASA will only rent spaces for astronauts. The next generation stations are also smaller but will be launched in much larger chunks, making the price per volume much cheaper. And much more modern operation. NASA absolutely will not invest anywhere close to $100B in those projects. NASA budget will mostly shift to moon stuff.
