TIMELAPSE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION (ISS tribute 2031)

In 2031, after over 30 years operating in space, the International Space Station will retire. It will burn up in the atmosphere, and crash back to Earth in the Pacific Ocean at Point Nemo – a place where spacecraft retire.

But what will happen before the end of the space station’s life and 30 year mission. How many more astronauts will get to live onboard? When will the first Starship dock with the station? Will the first person who steps on Mars, get to train on the ISS. And will the station get to witness the launch of the first crewed mission to Mars.

A timelapse and timeline of a number of ISS milestones are also included in the video. From when did the first astronauts start living on the station, start eating plants grown on the station, to the first docking for a SpaceX Dragon capsule. And even the beginning of tests on a handheld 3d bio-printer, that can use an astronaut’s own cells to print bandages in space.

Space quotes from: Stephen Hawking, Astronaut Victor J. Glover, Arthur C. Clarke, and Carl Sagan.
