SpaceX's vehicle to deorbit the International Space Station is a Dragon on steroids
The $843 million spacecraft SpaceX is designing to bring down the International Space Station at the end of the decade will be a super-powered version of its Dragon capsule that’s used to transport astronauts and cargo to orbit today, the company revealed Wednesday. NASA awarded SpaceX the massive contract to develop the U.S. Deorbit Vehicle (USDV) last month. It won the award — over the only other bidder, Northrop Grumman — in part because the design leverages so much flight-proven hardware, NASA said in a source selection statement published Tuesday.

Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of Ethereum, issued a warning on Wednesday against choosing a candidate purely based on whether they claim to be "pro-crypto." In a blog post, Buterin said it's more important to scrutinize a candidate's broader policies to ensure they support cryptocurrency's underlying goals, including internationalism and protection for private communications. "If a politician is pro-crypto, the key question to ask is: Are they in it for the right reasons?," wrote Buterin.
