SpaceX given $1.2B to destroy International Space Station
9news.com.auWhy do we want to destroy one of the most historical achievements of the century? Would it be that costly to move it somewhere else and make it a museum in a few hundred years when space travel becomes cheap?
Unless you pay the $1B a year or so for a few hundred years to maintain it in orbit or the massive cost to get it out of Earths orbit, it will eventually succumb to gravity and crash into the Earth.
I was confused at first by the "up to US$843 million ($1.26 billion)" till I realized it was a currency conversion from US to Australian.
The mother of all clickbait lol
