Space – ISS (International Space Station)

The International Space Station, more commonly known as the ISS is what we are going to learn about.

The ISS is the ‘International’ Space Station, which means that the station is an international project. The ISS is not the first space station. There have been others, however, what is special about the ISS is that the project is a multi-national effort by a number of nations.

The space station is an artificial satellite, which means it orbits the Earth from space. The moon is an example of a natural satellite, and the difference is that the artificial satellite is man-made.
