International Space Station

org_international

The International Space Station (ISS) is described as a site of ongoing international cooperation, particularly between Russia and the United States, with joint crew launches from Baikonur Cosmodrome highlighted as symbolically significant. It remains a platform for collaboration among multiple nations—including Russia, the U.S., Japan, and European countries—despite geopolitical tensions. NASA has purchased 68 seats on Russian Soyuz spacecraft since 2006 to transport astronauts to the ISS, totaling over $3.6 billion in contracts.
