Is that agreement a harbinger of things to come?

摘要

We talk with industrial leaders all across Europe, with companies in Russia and elsewhere. I think the industrial consensus is that it makes deep-space exploration far more affordable and doable in a time horizon — a much nearer timeframe when we work together. The problem with international collaboration is how to do it in such a way that it doesn't cost you more to collaborate than doing it by yourself. There are a lot of lessons learned, best examples and things we didn't do right at the beginning with the international space station.
