For the last two decades, the International Space Station (ISS) has been orbiting Earth some 250 miles above our heads. The modular facility is home to a rotating crew of astronauts who come to experience life in a unique environment while also conducting scientific research in microgravity conditions.
Almost 110 meters (356 feet) end to end — about the same length as a football field including the end zones — the ISS moves through space at around 17,000 mph, completing 16 Earth orbits a day, or about one every 90 minutes.
