NASA has officially chosen SpaceX to deorbit and destroy the International Space Station in 2030.
Axar.az reports that in a press release, the space agency announced that the Elon Musk-led space company had been selected to develop a "US Deorbit Vehicle" that's designed to pull the aging orbital outpost out of its orbit and burn up during its swan song reentry through the atmosphere.
"This decision also supports NASA’s plans for future commercial destinations and allows for the continued use of space near Earth," said NASA Space Operations Mission Directorate associate administrator Ken Bowersox in the release. "The orbital laboratory remains a blueprint for science, exploration, and partnerships in space for the benefit of all."
