International space station

The International Space Station (ISS) is a space laboratory orbiting Earth. It consists of modules from various space agencies and serves as a microgravity research platform. It orbits the Earth at high speeds, experiencing weightlessness, allowing scientists to conduct experiments not possible on Earth. Life support systems sustain astronauts, and the ISS enables international collaboration in science and technology. It observes Earth, advances space technology, and promotes STEM education.
