In the span of a single weekend in March 2023, two SpaceX Dragon capsules trace opposite arcs through the atmosphere — one ascending from Kennedy Space Center with fresh supplies and science, another descending with four astronauts who have spent six months living and working beyond the world they were born into. The Crew-5 mission, carrying Nicole Mann, Josh Cassada, Koichi Wakata, and Anna Kikina, closes quietly with a splashdown off Florida's coast, while the 27th commercial resupply flight lifts off almost simultaneously. What this moment reveals is not a triumph of the extraordinary, but

US maintains dominant position in commercial spaceflight and ISS operations through SpaceX partnership. Japan and Russia retain symbolic presence through crew participation, but US controls launch infrastructure and mission execution. Russia's continued ISS involvement suggests compartmentalization of space cooperation from broader geopolitical conflicts.
Similar to Cold War-era space cooperation (Apollo-Soyuz 1975), where superpowers maintained scientific collaboration despite political rivalry, demonstrating space as a domain for pragmatic international engagement.
