Russia Threatens to Leave US Astronaut And Abandon Space Station

[Being There]

Two decades of space cooperation between the U.S. and Russia could be coming to an end after the U.S. and its allies imposed crippling sanctions on the country. The Russian government announced Friday that it might abandon a U.S. astronaut set to return to Earth.

Holy Cat! That's a bit rough on the poor bloke. Didn't David Bowie write a song about this?

Bowie was ahead of his time - probably an alien.

"About "Russia leaving people stranded on the ISS"
That's B.S. yet again. The ISS has escape pods that can be used at any time PLUS Russia is not the only country that can go there. I would bet that if Russia tried to go to the ISS to rescue that astronaut the United States or NATO would shoot the launch down because a stranded astronaut is too politically useful. For that reason alone the United States won't do a rescue even if capable and it is reasonable to think the U.S. would even hack an escape pod to make damn good and sure the astronaut dies. That's the level of corruption we are dealing with."

That was an incredibly satisfying song but I thought it was released just the other day! Surely the 70s aren't that long ago?

Actually '69, just before Apollo 11.

Elon would rescue him and solidify, even further, his larger-than-life cultural hero-hood.
