International Space Station In Trouble Without Bass Cash

Alan Boyle of MSNBC.com reports the international space station have to be mothballed because the plan to send *NSYNC’s Lance Bass there next month fell through. Energia space executive Valery Ryumin tells the Moscow Times that the Russian space effort would be in big financial trouble without the estimated $20 million that the singer’s backers were expected to provide. Now with word Bass could make an April flight, some are wondering if the money will come in time to keep station operations on track.
