These great hollow globes of artificial super-metals, and artificial transparent adamant, ranged in size from the earliest and smallest structures, which were no bigger than a very small asteroid, to spheres considerably larger than the Earth. (Olaf Stapledon, STAR MAKER)

Plumbing and Politics
It appears that the United States is...raising a stink...over some of the sub-systems of the International Space Station that they have purchased from the Russians.
This is not the first time that this sub-system has been an issue. In March 2009, it was involved in a form of brinkmanship. Later that year, when 13 people were on the ISS at once, the US facility broke down, putting strain on the Russian facility.
Let's be honest, it's not like they can pull over at a rest stop.
