But what if it’s not fine? Even back in 1996, before a single component of the ISS was launched into orbit, NASA foresaw the possibility of an even worse worst-case scenario: an uncontrolled reentry. The crux of this scenario involves multiple systems failing in an improbable but not completely impossible cascade. Cabin depressurization could damage the avionics. The electrical power system could go offline, along with thermal control and data handling. Without these, systems controlling coolant and even propellant could break down. Unmoored, the ISS would edge slowly toward Earth, maybe over a year or two, with no way to control where it is headed or where its debris might land. And no, we could not save ourselves by blowing the station up. This would be extremely dangerous and almost certainly create an enormous amount of space trash—which is how we got into this hypothetical mess in the first place.
「我覺得就像每一個進入中國的外國人一樣，因為我喜歡攝影，我很喜歡在中國拍攝辛苦的勞工、地攤市場上的毛澤東畫像、紅色五角星，我得說我覺得我趕在『成為中國人』這個潮流走紅之前就在學習『成為中國人』，」安迪這樣告訴BBC中文，打趣稱在他回國後，很多朋友都問他是否有成為「黨員」、打算作為「間諜」效忠北京。
