Mir Space Station
 
Are they gonna crash it or not??? I heard on this on the news last night:

"...as russian cosmonuats rally to save the mir space station..."

Unfortunately i only heard the end of the report, so are they or arent they???

Oh, and instead of crashing it, they should put it into orbit around the moon...

The reason that is is so we don't have another Hitler...

Mhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... the reason Mir is being taken down is because it has been eaten up by bacteria. Now if they don't crash it then it will be a lump of metal circling the Earth. If they do, then maybe they could scrap it.

Personally- i think Sni(+)peR is right- why the hell would they want that up there just doing nothing? But how would they scrap it? take it down piece by piece like they are doing to the ISS (except the other way around)? Why don't they just say, "To hell with it!" and blow it up?

It isn't space bacteria. It's some bacteria from earth that got inside the space station before liftoff. That bacteria grew and consumed Mir. Mir is basically rotten. And you know what? The bacteria is similar to athlete's foot... the same bacteria people get on their feet. Hmmmmmmmmm.... shows that the parasite can survive quite well.

As for scrapping... if they blow it up then there will be more metal wasted in the explosion. Why not bring it down and keep it as an artifact or something? Or find the cause for the bacterial infection and if the bacteria experienced any change while in outer space for decades. It would benefit scientists more if it was taken down. If it is left up there then it will crash without anyone controling it in an unasigned area and maybe kill people or cause bad damage. The bacteria has eaten out the communications... that's why Russia signalled the problem. If cosmonauts are left inside then other bad things could happen too... like a vacuum leak, or something else screwing up on board. They'll have to crash it.
