On April 10th, 2017, NASA TV broadcasted a U.S. astronaut and two Russian cosmonauts making a parachute landing in Dzhezkazgan, Kazakhstan after completing an extended mission aboard the International Space Station (ISS).
Not much was made of this in the media at the time, but there is a much larger story orbiting about 250 miles far above the clouds of 'fake news' that so enshroud the global mainstream. It turns out that Russians and Americans can work together after all...
For six months Shane Kimbrough of NASA, Sergey Ryzhikov and Andrey Borisenko from the Russian space agency Roscosmos were able to do what most politicians can't seem to do for six minutes: get along. Kimbrough was quoted saying, "It's really neat to be part of something this big, something bigger than ourselves ."
Even more spectacularly, the Russian and American space agencies are planning to launch an entirely new science laboratory to attach to the ISS sometime in 2018. How can this be? How can Russians and Americans work together so well to build and maintain a $100 Billion space station, but not be able to form a positive diplomatic relationship?
I think the answer is simple. It's because there are no oil pipelines in space. Unless of course, the whole thing was just an elaborate front for Russia/Trump collusion.
