We should not have assumed that a political space station could be built.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Building one space station for everyone was and is insane: we should have built a dozen.
We should've asked China to be a portion of the space station. We should've worked out ways that we can... just give away the technology that we have that puts things up into space, with cooperation up above the atmosphere that's needed to help each other.
If it hadn't been for the Cold War, neither Russia nor America would have been sending people into space.
I think both the space shuttle program and the International Space Station program have not really lived up to their expectations.
Earth was not built to serve the needs of humans.
Space has always been confusing to politics.
Architecture must not do violence to space or its neighbors.
I thought any chance I had of space travel would be military or government-controlled.
I don't think the space station is innovative. Going to the moon was innovative because we had no idea how to do it.
It's really a good feeling to know that we put this up there, that it's working, that all these people's plans that worked so hard came together and things fit and we've got a real space station.
