I think you are somewhat misguided if you believe that the US is the only country with satallite communications systems or solar voltaic panel production facilities.

did not say that...

but ISS stuff is "unique"...and US pockets are (so far) deep...NASA spends more to maintain the space station then Europe and Japans human space budget combined.

it is a money pit
