The space station orbits Earth at an altitude of approximately 250 miles (402 kilometers), with its orbital path taking it over 90 percent of the Earth's population. Thanks to the size of its solar panels, it can be seen with the naked eye at dusk or dawn when flying over a local ar...

Orbital cargo ship reaches International Space StationAFP
The space station can be seen from Earth with the naked eye. It orbits at an altitude of approximately 350 kilometres (220 mi; 190 nmi) above the surface of the Earth, travelling at an average speed of 27,724 kilometres (17,227 mi) per hour, completing 15.7 orbits per day....
The CRS-32 SpaceX Dragon cargo capsule has arrived at the International Space Station (ISS) this morning (April 22), wrapping up about 28 hours traveling on orbit to close the gap between them. Dragon's orbital chase ended early this morning, with the capsule docking with the ISS's Harmon...
Starliner astronaut Sunita Williams says she and crewmate Butch Wilmore have not been "abandoned" in space, as NASA considers plans to speed their return. Feb 7 Astronaut discusses long-delayed return home Two astronauts who've been aboard the International Space Station since June are hoping...
Space may be the final frontier, but by now, the station's orbital domain has become familiar territory. Once again, NASA is setting its sights on the moon: The ongoing Artemis program is supposed to land "the first woman and the next man" on Earth's natural satellite by the year 2024...
With its low-earth trajectory, there is an aerodynamic drag from the faint atmosphere through which the station continually ploughs. This results in a small yet steady and perceptible loss of speed, and consequent orbital decay. Contributing to this loss are, surprisingly, tidal forces. Being so...
responsible transition in low-Earth orbit at the end of station operations,” said Ken Bowersox, NASA’s associate administrator for Space Operations Mission Directorate, adding that the the orbital laboratory “remains a blueprint for science, exploration, and partnerships in space for the benefit ...
