flag NASA will deorbit the ISS in 2030 via SpaceX, ending 25 years of continuous human presence.

flag The International Space Station, a symbol of global cooperation since 2000, is set to be deorbited in 2030 after over 25 years of continuous human presence. flag NASA has selected SpaceX to guide the station through a controlled re-entry, where it will burn up over the remote Pacific Ocean near Point Nemo. flag Aging infrastructure and rising costs have prompted the transition, with the U.S. shifting toward commercial space stations developed by companies like Axiom Space and Blue Origin. flag After 2030, China’s Tiangong station will be the only one in orbit. flag While some view the ISS’s end as a loss of a historic achievement, others see it as a necessary step toward a commercially driven future in space.
