After originally being funded by Congress until 2024, the International Space Station, which is used for research by NASA and many other agencies, will get an extension until 2030.

. However, both NASA and Boeing, the primary contractor of the ISS, are confident in the viability of its infrastructure.

Gatens echoes that, saying that NASA’s analysis showed “no red flags” but that, as always, they would continue to monitor the health of the station. According to Gatens, every ISS space agency partner has to go through the same process with their own government to extend funding for the lab. However, she adds that “at the space agency level, [Russia is] committed to do the extension.”Even with all the space agencies on board, it seems that the ISS will finally meet its maker in 2030. Gatens says that the only reason she could see the station being used past this next decade would be because commercial space stations weren’t operational yet.
