The ISS is scheduled to be decommissioned in just five years, after which it will be deorbited to crash into the Pacific unless a private-sector company like Axiom decides to purchase it. Axiom has announced plans to routinely offer 10-day visits to the ISS. The company also said it intends to start launching its own modules to the ISS starting sometime after 2020. Whether or not this will come to fruition is still uncertain.
