Learn how the International Space Station has helped scientists from all over the world research outer space, natural disasters, the human body, and more since its construction in 1998--featuring a full-color foldout map!
From the #1 New York Times bestselling Who Was? series comes Where Is?, a series that tells the stories of world-famous landmarks and natural wonders. In 1998, the United States, Canada, Japan, Russia, and ten other European countries collaborated to create the International Space Station. Modules were created by experts from all over the world and then launched into space, where they were assembled into a functioning research laboratory and living space for astronauts. Thanks to the station, humans have been able to conduct experiments and collect data in a way that they had never done before. Today, over 280 astronauts from over twenty countries have visited the International Space Station. The contributions to STEM and space exploration aboard the ISS are far-reaching and ongoing for space programs around the world.Author Biography
