Elon Musk voices concern over long-term safety of ISS amid Shubhanshu Shukla’s Axiom-4 delay

On Friday, ISRO emphasised that its primary focus was on safety and mission integrity in light of recent concerns expressed by NASA and Axiom Space regarding a leak at the International Space Station (ISS). SpaceX chief Elon Musk also raised alarms about the long-term safety of the ISS, suggesting that some of its components were aging and that the associated risks were increasing over time. He expressed his belief that, despite SpaceX earning significant revenue from transporting astronauts and cargo to the ISS, it would be prudent to consider de-orbiting the station within the next two years.
