Sorry, but the ISS is not space station Freedom. It’s in a Russian orbit for crying out loud.

It's sorry that so many have forgotten or ignored why the ISS is in an orbit convenient for Russia. One of Russia's big contributions to the station is that they provide most of the consumable supplies, like food and oxygen. The craft that bring those supplies up also provide the periodic orbit boost the station requires.

Sorry, but there’s no cyring in the exploration of space. That’s the first community to orbit the earth. It’s a myth that the ISS is not a mobile platform........
