The <entity_1> was the controlled <entity_0> of the modular Russian space station <entity_3> which was carried out on <entity_2>. Although <entity_4> was optimistic about <entity_3>'s future, the country's commitments to the International Space Station programme left no funding to support <entity_3>. The European Space Agency, German Federal Ministry of Defence and NASA also assisted with tracking <entity_3> during its final orbit and <entity_0>. At the time, <entity_3> was the largest spacecraft ever to reenter the Earth's atmosphere, and there were concerns that sizeable pieces of debris, particularly from the docking assemblies, gyrodynes and external structure, could survive <entity_0>.
