yeah gateway makes no sense at all tbh, just make iss2 pls ._.

like gateway serves no purpose apart from being somewhere to do microgravity experiments, which the iss fulfils anyway and if you're just going to make iss2 why not put it somewhere easier to access like leo instead of nrho

Gateway's primary purpose is to prevent the Artemis program from getting cancelled, and for better or for worse, it has succeeded so far.
