The International Space Station (ISS) is a habitable laboratory in space where international astronauts live and work together for long periods of time. It orbits Earth at an altitude of about 250 miles, completing one orbit every 90 minutes.
The ISS is the largest artificial satellite in orbit and is visible from Earth with the naked eye. It has been continuously occupied since 2000 and is home to a rotating crew of six people from different countries.
The ISS serves as a platform for scientific research and exploration in a variety of fields, including biology, physics, and astronomy. It also serves as a testbed for new technologies and systems that could be used in future space missions.
The ISS is a collaboration between five space agencies: NASA, Roscosmos, JAXA, ESA, and CSA. It is funded by the participating countries and operates under an international legal framework.
