The lack of awareness of the Tiangong stations in the west is distinctly strange.
- causal 2y agoYeah, very strange. ISS is in the news almost daily by comparison
- kjkjadksj 2y agoBecause its interesting. ISS has a shelf life fast approaching and the idea of it falling into the earth and not be replaced is another classic story of the american empire withering away. Akin to the last shuttle flight. Meanwhile a chinese space station doing a dozen small physics experiments doesn’t capture the same interest.

- sixothree 2y agoIt's strange how isolated Americans are in terms of international news.
