NASA chief says Russia leaving ISS could kick off a space race
CNN
Russian officials are threatening to pull out of the International Space Station, the orbiting laboratory that the US and Russia have jointly operated for two decades, as soon as 2024 in favor of operating an independent space station. Meanwhile, Nelson and the US government want to continue the ISS program through at least 2030.
"If Russia pulls out," Nelson put simply, "it would not be good."
