Nasa and its Russian equivalent Roscosmos today announced plans to build a new space station for when the International Space Station is retired in 2024. Roscosmos chief Igor Komarov told journalists: "We have agreed that Roscosmos and Nasa will be working together on the programme of a future space station." Last year Russia's Deputy PM Dmitry Rogozin said Moscow would leave the ISS project in 2020, and just last month Roscosmos said it envisioned the creation of a new Russian space station. At the press conference, Bolden also addressed criticism that Nasa is no longer funding many low-orbit missions, saying the agency is resolved to commercialising space travel.
