   We have ISS. Can we expand ISS into a huge space-ship or star-ship? Only   
   time will tell. I believe human being will try to build it but not on   
   the ground, possibly at Lagrange points.   
   --------------------------------------   
   The ISS is fragile and deteriorating, notably by hull cracking and air leaks   
   in the Russian sections. When the Russian Nauka vessel's attitude thrusters   
   fired unintentionally the torque came close to the station's structural   
   limit, the reaction gyros that normally control orientation had to be shut   
   down so they wouldn't fight the thrusters and twist the structure. The ISS   
   was at risk until the thrusters ran out of fuel.
