great.

Another partnership that we can spend money supporting, instead of really doing something meaningful, in something besides low earth orbit.

We didn't learn anything from our "partnership" with the Russians on building ISS.

On the contrary. We know Russian oxygen generators work less than necessary to sustain human life,
Russian oxygen candles have a high failure rate, the Russian SM is hazardous to occupants'
hearing, and Russian design engineers didn't meet the clearance specs for adding whatever is left to add to the ISS.

What a waste of time and money.
