Trump Administration Hopes To Privatize International Space Station.

The Washington Post (2/11) cites “an internal NASA document” which it claims shows that the Trump Administration “wants to turn the International Space Station into a kind of orbiting real estate venture run not by the government, but by private industry.” According to the document, the White House plans “to stop funding the station after 2024, ending direct federal support of the orbiting laboratory” and is “working on a transition plan that could turn the station over to the private sector.”
