They are. The space station is the first intergalactic rest stop with bathroom facilities. No place to walk the dog though.

Soft pink toilet roll and Mozart is all you need for 1st class. 2nd class you don't want to know about.

The US space shuttle Discovery has docked at the International Space Station.

It has docked for the last time, as it is set to be retired after this mission and placed in a museum.

I guess it is up to the second or first largest economies to go to Mars. As the third largest it is not up to the US to carry your burden of space travell.

We'l use NASA as an outreach program to Islam.
