What to do with the ISS


Recommended Posts

Is it though? It was worth billions new, but I imagine the depreciation on a space station is pretty eye-watering. Especially when there's a very limited number of people who would buy one off you.

Things aren't worth what the original buyer paid for them, they're worth what somebody would give you for them today.

Actually, the idea is that one bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. One resource in space is worth many more that aren't in space, simply because it's there. If there were no gas stations along major interstates, than you are kind of screwed. In space that can be fixed by just launching everything you need. But remember, the station was supposed to be a staging point for lunar trips, so, a gas-station and other supplies.

Basically, logistics. In. SPACE!

So, just because it is literally THERE, it has at least millions of dollars of potential, not necessarily value, but potential.
