So the ones built in Russia was also built by the US abi?

Of the 16 main pressurized modules US built 8 and Russia built 6

Is your maths that weak for you to keep mentioning 80%

If this is the case, then why the mumu boy post this shit?

Yo gee , I feel you a lot and I like how you stand for Christ . But man you can’t hate a nation for God , Jesus preached love , not hate , America has Christians too , no matter the immoralities that you see they do , it’s done in other countries too man , Russia equally ain’t a decent place , I have friends who are there who tell me bout their night clubs and all and how immoral they are , even here in Nigeria , it’s everywhere man , there’s immorality everywhere, I’ve seen a lot of your posts on how you just insult the country America . That’s how I feel man .
P.s no hard feelings man , I’m a soldier of Christ too lol , Peace ✌� ❤️

Russia where the first to get to the moon.
Reminds me of Yuri Gagary.

America too dey make noise.

mrvitalis:

Oga only Russia know how to float a space station in space ..no other people can .... they own the technology

Ask yourself why America would work with Russia if they can do it alone

Russians are the kings of mathematics

This is wrong, very, very wrong.
How about doing a little research on the ISS?

Hahaha less money for Russia

America is the greatest nation ever witnessed on earth.

Go look at Nigerians, Africans lining up to come to America vs Russia

Even Putins wife vacations to America �

Lol.. Mr man, you don't even know how the ISS even operates in "space"

Well, 1st of all, the Space stations are not in SPACE that you are thinking of. They are still in earth's orbit. Therefore the gravity of the earth can pull it down if not properly handled. So gravity works against it not for it.

2ndly you talking of a propulsion system and saying its simple says a lot about you Trump haters.

3rdly, you response has nothing to do with the point of the argument you replied to.

Still more shitty dumb nonsense as usual. There is no hope for you. The earth's orbit is still part of space. There isn't a strict line that defines space. The ISS is in the part of space that's still influenced by earth's gravity and far enough that gravity creates the orbit.
I have already told you that gravity does most of the maneuvering of the ISS. And the propulsion is just a simple nudging. Nothing special about it. It's the same nudging propulsion that is used to move to move astronauts in space.

Stop writing nonsense.

"Worst is yet to come": Putin told Macron he will continue war in Ukraine, Élysée Palace source says
From CNN's Nathan Hodge in Moscow and CNN’s Xiaofei Xu and Anaëlle Jonah in Paris
Russian President Vladimir Putin told his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron that he will continue military operations in Ukraine during a 90-minute call initiated by Putin, an Élysée Palace source told reporters at a briefing on Thursday.
“This conversation is unfortunately an occasion to hear that President Putin will continue military interventions and to go all the way,” according to the Élysée source.
“[The call] allowed the President of the Republic to return to the disagreements we have with Russia, to plead for the diplomatic alternative to military operations, to tell the truth to President Putin about the way we see his war in Ukraine but also the consequences it will have for Russia in the long term,” the source continued.
The Élysée source said "the worst is yet to come" in Ukraine following Macron’s phone call with Putin.
"Without making a prediction, we should expect the worst is yet to come. The (French) president said so yesterday as well. There is nothing in what Putin said today that should reassure us," the source said.
Meanwhile, Russian state news agency TASS said Putin and Macron had "a frank exchange of views on the situation around Ukraine," the Kremlin's press service said Thursday.
A Kremlin pool report from the Russian state news agency RIA-Novosti said the discussion was difficult, with Putin alleging the Ukraine had carried out a "seven-year sabotage" of the Minsk agreements, a peace process that was definitely ended by the Russian government in its recent recognition of two separatist republics in Ukraine's east.
The two sides agreed to keep the door of dialogue open, according to both the Russians and the French.
RIA's report added that Putin warned the West that if Russian-Ukrainian negotiations drag on, then Moscow will have new demands on Kyiv, and that the tasks of the "special military operation" — Russia's euphemism for its war in Ukraine — would be carried out in any case.
According to the Élysée source, Putin also denied having bombarded Kyiv and warned that the situation will worsen, but it’s the fault of Ukraine.
In response, Macron warned Putin that he is making a huge mistake, according to the source. Macron reiterated that Moscow’s demands of neutralizing and disarming Ukraine are unacceptable, and the responsibility of this conflict falls entirely on Putin.
But Macron also said that there is still time for diplomacy and dialogue to address Russia’s concerns and include Russia’s interests; however, the discussion can’t happen “under Russian control” and had to be organized by international partners, according to the source.
Macron also asked Putin to respect the Ukrainian president, his family, relatives, state officials and elected representatives, according to the source.
After his call with Putin, Macron spoke with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Fake news. The US makes their own rocket engines.

What's d essence of having phone dat can Google?

US rely on Russia for rocket engines for launching of satellites. No man is an island!

Certainly, Russia is invaluable to d world. Notin but d truth!

Alusiizizi:


Will have to disagree with you here. First of all, New Scientist is an American publication so they are far more likely to present American achievements, secondly, those universities that you mention will break if they try matching up with universities like the Moscow Academy of Sciences.

Actually I'm trying to show you where to see American science in millions since you said America don't study math and engineering anymore.

Secondly, Webometrics ranks universities in the world in terms of global impact and research output. MIT and Stanford are ranked 2nd and 3rd behind Harvard. Moscow state university, the best in Russia is ranked 198

Philipmems:


It's unfortunate hypocrites like you that hide behind religion is so myopic that you can't see beyond your nose. Silicone valley is the home of technology, Elon musk and his peers has revolutionized space technology, if you are dumb enough to think that Russia not collaborating with the US for their rocket engine technology has any effect on the US, then you are clearly not a critical thinker as I expect from fake religious fanatics.
With your commitment to religion and all the pastors and churches in Nigeria, can you explain to the world why Nigeria is not flowing with milk and honey as promised for God's people in the Bible?

hahahahahaha abeg calm down sir

JohnBullMySon:
The US used technology from Skylab to design the ISS not Mir

Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Skylab was not a modular space station. In its first version it was not even crewed. The first modular space station in the world was MIR. Do your research please.

Is it so hard to accept Russia is superior in certain aspects of technology (Missile, nuclear and Space) than the US?. Haba

Russia cuts off rocket engine supply and threatens space station partnership
‘Let them fly on something else, their broomsticks,’ said Dmitry Rogozin, the head of Russia’s space agency
By Christian Davenport
Today at 12:02 p.m. EST
Roscosmos, the Russian space agency, said Thursday it would no longer service the RD-180 rocket engines that are used by the United Launch Alliance, the joint venture of Lockheed Martin and Boeing, to launch national security missions for the Pentagon.
Get the full experience. Choose your plan
It also said it would cut off the supply of the RD-181 engines used in Northrop Grumman’s Antares rocket, which is used to fly cargo and supplies to the International Space Station.
“In a situation like this, we can’t supply the United States with our world’s best rocket engines,” Dmitry Rogozin, the head of Roscosmos, said on Russian state television, according to Reuters. “Let them fly on something else, their broomsticks, I don’t know what.”
Russia’s decision to withdraw any technical support probably would not affect any upcoming launches. ULA’s CEO Tory Bruno has said the company has been using the engines in its Atlas V rocket for years and has enough expertise in house to handle any issues that might arise with its engine supply. In a statement, ULA spokesman Jessica Rye said the company has “agreements for technical support and spares, but if that support is not available, we will still be able to safely and successfully fly out our Atlas program.”
After an effort to end reliance on the Russian engines for national security missions that was spearheaded by the late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), ULA moved to develop another rocket, called Vulcan, that would use American-made engines supplied by Blue Origin , the space venture founded by Jeff Bezos. (Bezos owns The Washington Post.)
Those BE-4 engines have been delayed, but Bruno has said he expects to receive them this year and be able to start flying Vulcan.
Officials from Northrop Grumman and NASA did not immediately respond to requests for comment on how the lack of the RD-181 engines would affect any upcoming Antares launches to the space station.
Rogozin on Wednesday also threatened the partnership that has sustained the space station for more than 20 years. Speaking on Russia Today, a state-controlled English-language station, he said through a translator that Russia “will closely monitor the actions of our American partners and, if they continue to be hostile, we will return to the question of the existence of the International Space Station.”
That followed a series of tweets from last week asking whether the United States wanted to ruin the cooperation in operating the station. Rogozin reminded President Biden that Russia is responsible for firing the thrusters that keep the station in the correct orbit and said that without Russia , the station could come crashing down.
He reiterated that point in his appearance on Russia Today, saying that the United States would “want to maintain cooperation with Russia within the International Space Station despite the numerous sanctions.”
“Why?” he asked. “Because it is impossible to manage the space station without us. We’re responsible for its navigation and fuel delivery.”
NASA has sought to avoid any talk of ending its partnership with Russia. Earlier this week, Kathy Lueders, NASA’s associate administrator for space operations, said the two space agencies “are still talking together. We’re still doing training together. We’re still working together. Obviously, we understand the global situation and where it is, but as a joint team, these teams are operating together.”
She added, “Obviously we need to continue to monitor the situation. … We’ve operated in these kinds of situations before and both sides always operated very professionally and understand the importance of this fantastic mission and continuing to have peaceful relations between the two countries in space.”
Later this month, NASA astronaut Mark Vande Hei is scheduled to return from the space station with a pair of Russian cosmonauts on a Russian spacecraft. When asked about that flight, Lueders said NASA was still expecting Russia to fly Vande Hei home safely and that no changes had been made.
Also on Thursday, OneWeb, which manufactures satellites designed to provide Internet connectivity, announced it was suspending all launches from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, where Russia launches its Soyuz rocket. The company had been scheduled to launch its next batch of satellites from there on Friday.
Rogozin said Russia would allow the launch only if the British government divested its stake in the company and if the satellites would not be used for military purposes.
War in Ukraine: What you need to know
The latest: Russia has taken a Kherson government building in its siege on Ukraine’s port cities. Meanwhile, the U.N. refugee agency says
more than 1 million people have fled Ukraine — a massive exodus that is set to become Europe’s worst humanitarian crisis this century.
The fight: Casualties are mounting as Russia advances and adopts siege tactics. France’s Macron talked with Putin on Thursday , and said “the worst is yet to come,” A Moscow is facing mounting allegations that it has used cluster and vacuum weapons .
Maps: Russia’s assault on Ukraine has been extensive with strikes and attacks across the entire country. The conflict playing out between Russia and Ukraine is one marked by land borders and shaped by strategic influence .
The response: President Biden announced that the United States has closed its airspace to Russian aircraft, a move that came two days after Canada and the European Union issued similar restrictions. The closures have come alongside sweeping sanctions that have caused the Russian ruble to plunge .

Ukraine and Russia have to end this war.

US intelligence are saying that Russia will destroy Ukraine Military in the coming days but they're doing their best to help them with intelligence to prevent this.

Kikikiki! It means you'll not be getting the huge billions of dollars from NASA and you'll be very broke soonest... US companies like Tesla and Origin can build superior engines. This is a very dump funny statement from Russia. Soon, you'll realize that the US used to patronize you to help you. They don't really need your engines. They can do better without this your nonsense engines. Instead of you all to pressure your government to stop the genocide, you're joining him to fail... Lol! Happy failing.

FreeIgboho:




This is the weirdest “sanction” I’ve ever seen
Even a private company in US builds rocket engines ( see below)

Oga, I learnt da in 2014 after Russia annexed crimea, US opted out from buying Russian rocket engines and resorted to local companies, space X, only for Dem to run back to Russia soon after.

Why??

When a woman marries two husband, she will certainly tel which one is better.
Russia is known for efficiency!

The way some people like quarrel for this nairaland ehn, sometimes I go dey feel as if na here Russian and Ukraine take dey fight their war

Nasa explores how to keep international space station in orbit without Russian help
Space agency says Northrop Grumman and SpaceX could assist after Russia raises prospect of pulling out over sanctions punishing its invasion of Ukraine

International Space Station will plummet to a watery grave in 2031
Read more Nasa is exploring ways to keep the international space station in orbit without Russian help, but doesn’t see any immediate signs Moscow is withdrawing from the collaboration after the invasion of Ukraine .
The US side of the international space station (ISS) supplies power and life support, Russia is responsible for propulsion and keeping the station afloat: it does this by using docked Progress spacecraft to periodically give the station a boost to maintain its altitude of approximately 400km (250 miles).
Last week, though, Russia’s Roscosmos space chief Dmitry Rogozin raised the prospect of pulling out of the partnership in response to US sanctions.
Kathy Lueders, who heads the agency’s human spaceflight program, said US aerospace and defense company Northrop Grumman had offered a reboost capability.
“And, you know, our SpaceX folks are looking at can we have additional capability,” she said.
Lueders added that operations at the space station were proceeding “nominally” and “we’re not getting any indications at a working level that our counterparts are not committed”.
“That said, we always look for how do we get more operational flexibility and our cargo providers are looking at how do we add different capabilities,” she said.
The last Northrop Grumman Cygnus cargo vessel that arrived at the ISS on 21 February was the first to boast a capacity to “reboost” the outpost without Russian help.
On Friday, SpaceX boss Elon Musk tweeted his company’s logo in response to Rogozin’s rhetorical question about who would save the ISS from an uncontrolled de-orbit.
But Lueders stressed that such plans were a contingency measure only. “It would be very difficult for us to be operating on our own – ISS is an international partnership that was created … with joint dependencies,” she said.
“As a team, we are looking at where we may have operational flexibilities, but … it would be a sad day for international operations if we can’t continue to peacefully operate in space,” she said.
A symbol of post cold war detente, the ISS has been continuously habited for more than 21 years and has weathered past geopolitical storms, notably Russia’s invasion of Crimea in 2014. But some observers believe the invasion of Ukraine could hasten the demise of US-Russian space cooperation.

What kind of handicapped human being is this one? The thing you posted clearly states that the edge of space is 100km above sea level. And in that same article it says that the ISS orbits at 400 km from earth. Because it's called low earth orbit does mean it isn't part of space. Ogbeni is something wrong with your brain? Why is thinking so hard for you?
You couldn't even read what you posted. Shame. You always end up disgracing yourself because you can't think.

U.S have their own engines but Russia rocket engines are more powerful.

If you say the most powerful rocket motor I will agree.

But the most powerful rocket engines, the top 3 are all American:
Falcon Heavy, Delta Four and the famous Space shuttle. The Russian Energia system that is also famous for ferrying most of ISS components to build the station and astronauts when the Space shuttle fleet was retired comes in fourth and in fifth is another famous but retired American workhorse, the indefatigable Saturn V that put man on the moon for the first time and in the process set an unbeatable record for space payload of 77 tons, unmatched till today..... well except that Musk intends to strap two more Falcon 9 boosters making the possibility of a Mars trip all the more a reality.

Abeg Russia is nowhere in sight.
If not for the US Judiciary, both Boeing and Blue Origin too will be shooting for the heavens.

The United States government is the biggest funder to the ISS.

This is misinformation.
