Orbiting Earth at nearly 28,000 kilometers per hour, the International Space Station is one of humanity’s greatest engineering achievements—a permanently inhabited laboratory floating hundreds of kilometers above our planet. In this episode, we explore how the International Space Station (ISS) works, from its construction and life-support systems to the science conducted aboard and the daily lives of the astronauts who call it home. How does the ISS stay in orbit without falling to Earth? How do astronauts breathe, eat, sleep, and exercise in microgravity? And what kinds of groundbreaking research are being carried out in space? We examine the technology that keeps the station operational, the international collaboration behind its success, and the vital role it plays in preparing humanity for future missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond. Because the International Space Station isn’t just a laboratory in space—it’s a glimpse into the future of human exploration.
