NASA is making plans to safely decommission the International Space Station (ISS), which has been in orbit for over 25 years and is facing safety concerns, including a recent gas leak that nearly led to an emergency evacuation. The ISS, weighing approximately 450,000 kg and valued at $100 billion, is expected to begin its final descent towards Earth as early as 2028. To prevent an uncontrolled re-entry that could rain debris on populated areas, NASA has designated Point Nemo in the Pacific Ocean as the crash site, known as the 'Spaceship Graveyard.' This operation requires nine tonnes of fuel, prompting NASA to award SpaceX a $1 billion contract to modify a Crew Dragon capsule to serve as a powerful tugboat. The final crew will depart the ISS in 2030, and the SpaceX tug will then initiate a series of controlled burns to guide the station into the ocean. Although some debris may survive the descent, this controlled approach aims to prevent a repeat of the Skylab disaster in 1979, which scattered wreckage over Australia.
