Thank you Josef. We value the growing relationship between @esa and @vast. Finding a path to continue the transatlantic partnership into the post-ISS commercial space station era is a top priority for Vast.

The International Space Station stands as one of the greatest examples of international cooperation of our time.

As Europe looks ahead to the next chapter of human spaceflight, we are exploring a range of options to maintain and strengthen our presence in Low Earth Orbit.

Our cooperation with @vast marks an important step in this work, helping us assess future opportunities for European astronauts, research and technology in orbit.
