🚀 What is the International Space Station?

The International Space Station (ISS) is a big, shiny house in space! 🌟 It flies around Earth really fast—like a super-fast airplane! 🛩️ Astronauts from different countries live there and do fun science experiments. They float because there's no gravity in space! 🪐

It's like a giant toy box where scientists learn new things about space and Earth. 🌍✨

The International Space Station (ISS) is a science lab that orbits Earth! 🛰️ It's as big as a football field and has been home to astronauts since 2000. 🌎 They study space, grow plants, and even fix the ISS with spacewalks! 🧑‍🚀

Countries like the USA, Russia, and Japan work together to build and run it. 🤝 The ISS helps us learn how to live in space for future trips to Mars! 🚀

The International Space Station (ISS) is a habitable artificial satellite orbiting Earth at 400 km altitude. 🌍 It's a joint project of NASA (USA), Roscosmos (Russia), ESA (Europe), JAXA (Japan), and CSA (Canada). 🏗️

Key facts:

• Speed: 28,000 km/h (orbits Earth every 90 minutes!)
• Size: 109m long—like a soccer field!
• Research: Studies microgravity, space medicine, and Earth's climate.

Astronauts conduct experiments impossible on Earth, like growing crystals or observing flames in zero-g. 🔬 Future missions to the Moon and Mars rely on ISS discoveries!
