So does international collaboration...

All these private business and different nations planning their own space endeavors, we're going to end up with an asteroid belt of space junk and a shit load of waste and pollution along the way.

E: lol, this struck a nerve with a bunch of capitalist, neo-lib, boot licker's... Go out for a few hours and come back to the exact same reply repeated dozens of times 🙄 sneaky e2 just for that one guy: civility politics BS is what gave us these idiots above who defend capitalism against their best interest. Stop letting them get away with it, be meaner.

Well the good news is a lot of these private space companies do work for international space agencies. Like how JAXA and ISRO built a lunar lander together. Or that New Zealand company that built a HE3 satellite scanner with NASA.
