Given the progress made by the USSR and France in unmanned spaceflight cooperation, it was only a question of time before manned or piloted flight should appear on the agenda. By this stage, though, Presidents de Gaulle and Pompidou had both passed on and the nature of that relationship became more complicated under their successors, Valéry Giscard d’Estaing and François Mitterrand. By the time of the Russian Federation and the International Space Station (ISS), human spaceflight cooperation had broadened out to include Germany and other European Space Agency (ESA) countries. The high-profile, high-risk nature of human spaceflight meant new and different types of cooperation, standards, structures, presentation and sensitivities.
