The Kibo is a large lab. Once all three parts are attached they will need three scientists up there full time to operate Kibo and the Euro lab. Of course three scientists is what they won’t get since the emergency egress module was cancelled.

Which is why I proposed a Space University at the ISS. Scholarships would be offered to all the ISS partners so that at least one Student per state per year would live on and study at Space University.

Think of the fire that would be lighted under all students who wanted to live and study in Space! In the course of "building" the living modules, (dorms, gyms and labs) the private sector would wrest control of space activities from NASA who are old stick-in-the-mud "Rocker Scientists!"

Wanna go back to the Moon? the kids should lead the way!
