Russia and the United States have had a tense relationship in recent years. However, the duo still continues to work together on one issue. The two countries are working together to send crew to the International Space Station (ISS). However, Russia will soon withdraw from the ISS. Russia’s federal space agency, Roscosmos, made a statement on the subject. Roscosmos announced that the two countries will continue their partnership on cross flights until 2025. Here are the details…
Joint ISS missions of Russia and the USA will continue until 2025!
Crossover flights involve placing crews from more than one country on the same spacecraft. The Russian Space Agency Roscosmos always wants to place at least one of its representatives on the Russian section of the ISS. In addition, it aims to have at least one NASA representative in the US department.
Russian Space Agency Roscosmos also stated that this decision was taken “to preserve the reliability of the ISS as a whole.” International Space Station ISS is very important for both Russia and the USA. Launched in 1998, the ISS is a symbol of US-Russia cooperation following the end of the Cold War and the space race.

Roscosmos Director General Yuri Borisov has previously stated that Russia wants to focus on building its own space station. To achieve this goal, he announced that he would withdraw from the ISS “after 2024.” NASA, on the other hand, was planning how to manage events after Russia’s departure from the ISS. In addition, NASA committed to maintaining the ISS until at least 2030.
Russia will continue to assist NASA with ISS missions until 2028. Tensions escalated rapidly between the two countries after the Russia-Ukraine War. Even though cold winds blow between the two countries, they will continue their partnership when it comes to scientific studies.
