> Russia tells NASA space station pullout less imminent than indicated earlier > Russian space officials have informed U.S. counterparts that Moscow would like to keep flying its cosmonauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) until their own orbital outpost is built and operational, a senior NASA official told Reuters on Wednesday. I had interpreted "after 2024" as "eventually, sometime after 2024, not right away", and looks like that's what Russia meant as well.
