Happy Birthday ISS

Postby RichieB16 » Thu Nov 20, 2008 9:09 pm

Today is the 10th anniversary of the launch on the International Space Station.  On November 20, 1998, a Russian Proton rocket launched the Zarya Module into orbit which was the first portion of the space station.

You know what would be interesting - how much has the ISS cost over 10 years?

I don't have an exact number, but the total cost at the end is supposed to be $100 billion I think.
