Jun 30 at 19:41 | comment | added | blobbymcblobby | The questions and answers here are sadly somewhat ill informed and have hints of anti-US bias, esp re: China 'feeling hurt from the ban' which is prevalent across social media. Its a shame whoever reads these will come away none the wiser. | |

May 30, 2018 at 1:25 | comment | added | Infiltrator | @SF.: ask it on politics, then? I am sure that somebody could go into the legality of one nation inviting/bringing another nation's personnel onto the ISS, and whether the components are "part of" the ISS or whether the ISS is "just using" nations' components and is just an abstract entity. Feel free to not ask, of course, but just let me know because now I am curious. | |
May 29, 2018 at 13:26 | comment | added | SF. | @Infiltrator: I'm afraid the answer is beyond scope of Space Exploration because it would be entirely political - and definitely opinion-based. | |
May 29, 2018 at 10:40 | comment | added | Infiltrator | @SF., that would make an interesting question. Want to ask it? | |

Dec 7, 2016 at 4:03 | comment | added | Organic Marble | The international agreements leading to the ISS are quite complicated. Leaving Russia aside, each of the international partners brought significant assets to the group - Japan, a cluster of lab modules + resupply missions, ESA, a large lab module + resupply missions, Canada, the ISS robotics system. In the 80s when all this was being hammered out, was India a player in human space flight? | |
Dec 6, 2016 at 23:08 | comment | added | IT Bear | So, to oversimplify international politics, "Russia's cool with China," and "U.S. is pretty cool with India," but, "because they don't like our friends, and we don't like their friends, you can't join our club. And we have literally the coolest treehouse in the world." Is that about it? | |
Dec 6, 2016 at 22:55 | comment | added | called2voyage♦ | The India/Pakistan conflict could also be a factor. Both are space-faring (though Pakistan relies on China for launches), and appearing to align with one and not the other hampers arbitration. You should read up on Russia's relationship with Pakistan and India. | |
Dec 6, 2016 at 22:51 | comment | added | called2voyage♦ | International politics is abysmally slow. Seven years is really not too much of a surprise to me. | |
Dec 6, 2016 at 22:51 | comment | added | IT Bear | @called2voyage also, beautiful pic in that article you posted of Apollo-Soyuz. :) | |
Dec 6, 2016 at 22:49 | comment | added | IT Bear | @called2voyage On 2nd to last wiki link I read, "ISRO announced at ... 2009 IAC that their nations wished to join the ISS programme, with talks due to begin in 2010. The heads of agency also expressed support for extending ISS lifetime." which made me wonder what's taking so long, if there's some kind of holdup. Even if they don't ferry crew, they should already have means for resupply, like the Dragon capsule. | |
Dec 6, 2016 at 22:23 | comment | added | called2voyage♦ | Also, I assume you've already read this? Though I should note that there is doubt that further progress toward cooperation in space is on the horizon, in light of the elected administration in the United States. | |
Dec 6, 2016 at 22:15 | comment | added | called2voyage♦ | Care to point to the place in that article that says that India is not in in the ISS due to obstruction? From what I can see, it seems that South Korea and India simply haven't joined yet. | |
