Description
Summary:Hall talks about architecture for low-Earth orbit and beyond. In January, officials with the European, Canadian and Japanese space agencies expressed their mutual support for funding the International Space Station through 2030. NASA Administrator Bill Nelson announced on Dec 31, 2021, the US commitment to fund the ISS through that year. However, in April, Roscosmos Director General Dmitry Rogozin repeatedly indicated that Russia might withdraw its partnership early to focus on developing its own space station. In July, Yury Borisov replaced Rogozin at Roscosmos and clarified that Russia might merely begin the exit process after 2024 and that the process could take up to two years.
