My problem with international what ever... and specially in the context of the American Space Programs

it's fundamental :

• Amendment I

• Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

• Amendment II

• A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.

• Amendment III

• No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law.[

• Amendment IV

• The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects,[a] against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

• etc...

In the sense that ROW (rest of the world) had already 242 years to adapt to the USA... but how many nations are really America compatible?

Which nations doesn't jail tommy robinson? which nations... etc etc etc etc etc etc etc...

And my second point, is among the few who are more or less america compatible, how many will change?

conclusion : THE AMERICAN SPACE PROGRAMS.

and then all about issues, like accountability, etc etc etc etc... punishments, etc etc...

Most of those foreign nations, cloak their nationalism to exploit or the greed (good luck) or the generosity (and naivity) of the American People...

most nations don't let even their people express their grievances... and some want to be in space with them?

no thanks... take your own rocket, and don't stay in the way... or pew pew, (silent)boom but great falshes... :).

don't forget ROW = aliens !!! (not the space kinds, but who knows ;)).
