NASA to retire International Space Station in January 2031, to fall in the Pacific Ocean

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has announced that the International Space Station (ISS) will be cease its functioning by 2031. The Director of ISS, Robyn Gatens said in a press release that the International Space Station is entering its third and the most rich decade as a groundbreaking scientific stage in microgravity. At the end of the year 2030, the low-Earth orbit will be see the last of the International Space Station as the floating laboratory will be cease the operations and swoop down the Earth.

International Space Station: What is the significance?
1. The International Space Station has been hovering in the low Earth orbit for more than two decades, zooming across the periphery of the Earth at the speed of 8 km per second.
2. International Space Station is one of its kind laboratory that has support human civilization research and achieves some cutting-edge scientific and robotic growth .
3. The International Space Station as well as serves as the host to myriad scientific activities and experiments that give to the preparation of sending the first woman and first person of colour to space.
4. International Space Station as well as hosts the groundbreaking work by NASA of sending the first humans to Mars.
ISS to retire in Pacific Ocean
As per the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the operators of ISS in 2031 will be direct the station to fall in the South Pacific Oceanic Uninhabited area and that is commonly known as Point Nemo. Point Nemo in the Pacific Ocean is considered to be the remotest location on Earth.
With this, the International Space Station will be no longer be a cosmic entity but will be return to the ground, and all that is left after will be its heritage .

International Space Station is a multinational conjoint project and that include five participating space agencies: NASA (US), Roscosmos (Russia), JAXA (Japan), ESA (Europe), and CSA (Canada).
ISS serves as a microgravity and the space air research laboratory in and that scientific research is conducted in astronomy, astrobiology, physics, meteorology, and other fields.
