This is the best summary I could come up with:
NASA has selected SpaceX to develop a vehicle that will bring the International Space Station to a fiery end when the time comes.
On Wednesday (June 26), the agency issued a statement announcing that SpaceX has been selected to develop and deliver the "U.S. Deorbit Vehicle" as it's known.
The vehicle will be responsible for disposing of the space station "in a controlled manner after the end of its operational life in 2030," the statement adds.
"The orbital laboratory remains a blueprint for science, exploration, and partnerships in space for the benefit of all," Bowersox added.
"There's nothing magical that happens in 2030," Steve Stich, manager of NASA"s commercial crew program at Johnson Space Center (JSC) in Houston, said during a Jan. 25, 2024 briefing.
Stich added that the ISS will continue operations until commercial space stations are in orbit and ready for crews.
