U.S. and Russian Scientists Are Making Plans to Go Back to the Moon Together

[Spike]

What U.S.-Russian cooperation in space might look like in ten years: a moon base.

American and Russian engineers are getting closer to a new plan for cooperating in space, one that would go beyond low Earth orbit and preserve the multinational alliance forged at the dawn of the International Space Station program in 1993.

Organizations on both sides are quietly toying with the idea of going back to the moon together. That is, if politics don't get in the way.

With the ISS scheduled to make a controlled plunge into the ocean in 2024, the partners have been preparing to go their own ways. NASA, while funding companies like SpaceX to go to orbit, is developing the Orion spacecraft and the super-heavy rocket called Space Launch System (SLS) for manned missions into deep space and potentially as far as Mars.

Sounds great but we should not be sharing differentiating technology with them at this point.

Why not? Trump trusts them more than our own ******* government. Plus electing Trump was handing him a blank check to do whatever he wants. You guys wanted him, so you own him from this point forward.

You keep saying "our". I don't think that word means what you think it means.

Where is the proof of this hacking? Obama isn't showing any cards. It's political grandstanding, or if true, he's a failure on cyber defense and a failure for letting the USA governmental people no to use their own private servers.

Get a clue. It's not Obama. Trump has an meeting where the intelligence agencies are going to attempt to clue him in. Obama isn't going to be there. Woolsey won't be there either, he's given up on Trump.

ha ha - that's old cold world fears - when the US had the balls to go to space


We are using THEIR technology now, just to hitch a ride to space. We are on the outside when it comes to leaving the earth period. China is closer to getting people to the moon than we are.

Hillary is the one bought and paid for. She already sold them Uranium. Why would Russia prefer Trump to Hillary? They already own Hillary.

No problem.

I'd rather own Trump than that two bit street ***** Hildabeast who has no business in any public office whatsoever. She should be busting rocks with her old man.

There has never been a time of a more involved public on a national, federal, government level.

Say what you want about Trump, but this is a new era of government. More people are watching now than ever before.

For better or worse, this is our Republic now. All sides better get used to it.
