I really like how World's Fair and International Games add a nice cooperate/competitive dynamic to the Culture Victory, but has anybody ever gotten any benefit out of the International Space Station project in pursuing a Science Victory? It's made available by Satellites, and by that aren't you yoinking your SV before the next meeting of the UN anyway?
Assuming you're hoarding your Great Scientists and have a Great Engineer in reserve to pop the Hubble Telescope, I'm betting you've got all the techs you need to build the Spaceship within a few turns of hitting Satellites, so why would anyone waste production trying to build the ISS when they could be spending those hammers on spaceship parts?
Am I way off-base in thinking the ISS needs a buff or the SV needs a slight re-work in order to make the ISS relevant as a part of the game at all?
