At 20, the International Space Station remains a stellar success story
The first crew, in which American astronaut and former navy Seal Bill Shepherd came to live in orbit on October 30, 2000, two years later, along with Russian astronaut Sergei Crakalov and Yuri Gideñzo.
But ISS construction will last for more than a decade until 2011, when the final planned module was installed. This rally was completed for a decade when the station was surrounded by a number of countries.
NASA astronaut Nicole Stott told me through teleconference at the beginning of this year, "The best example of how I can successfully work, as a space station, and the way we have set up the program together with our international partners is absolutely peaceful."
The station had spent three months living in the space station in 2009 and was part of the final space shuttle mission in 2011, which provided the last principal division of the ISS, which ended its construction.
A crazy construction project
David Nixon writes, "His creation is the highest achievement of the International Space Station," who was invited to work in the ISI Design for his 2016 International Space Station: Architectural Bound Arthritis.
He identified the unprecedented obstacles that started at the beginning of the framing of a powerful rocket for each module, nuts, bolts and remote, empty and deadly positions.
"It was a big challenge to perform just one journey on this journey, but the station's design calls for only 30 people to provide the primary building blocks of the station. Everyone is safely and accurately equipped with discrimination against the discrimination.
Today the ISS is a six-bedroom research center that provides two gymnasiums, a gym and a Kapula epic 360-degree view. The station and its crew live and work, traveling around 5 miles per second, surrounding the Earth every 90 minutes. It is powered by a one-acre solar panels which helps to make the station more clearly easier than the Earth.
Asked about the strange part of living in a structure directly from the fascinating science fiction around the planet at high speeds, the station says "it's really the immediate reality that we live on a planet ... our day-to-day life I do not think we all Accepted. "
Meet a far-fetched imagination
The first concept of the space station was its "It Moon", as described by Edward Everett Hale in the 1870 story of the same name. It is a brick sphere, 200 feet (61 meters) of diameter, which in some way uses water from the waterfall and accidentally uses electricity, in any way it creates the first reference in the radius of the position of the radius.
In the mid-20th century, Soviet and American engineers began to think about the place of residence more seriously. Skylab introduced the success of the Apollo program, which will be occupied by three employees for 171 days between 1973 and 1974, and will create the path of more permanent facilities in orbit.
After that, the Apollo-Suez test was followed in 1975, which previously showed the spacecraft connected to two northern spacecraft, which could successfully occupy space. The mission was a symbol of international cooperation and the upcoming things, which began with the Russian Space Station Mir created from 1986 to 1996.
Some American astronauts can spend time with Mir, some of whom travel in space shuttle.
For the last time in 2000, people will leave Mir, the first crew of the ISS will come just a few months before the non-stop profession of more than 18 years of continuing this day.
One kind of laboratory
For more than two decades, the ISS has played a unique role in the scientific world as both scientific research and the Earth Observation Center. Most of the science and innovation done at the space station have got the benefit of regular people in the patronage of the world. For example, Robotics is being used for ISS for remote-operated surgical methods, including breast biopsies for women in remote areas.
The technology designed to test water quality at the station also led a mobile app to keep track of water quality in global locations. Image taken from orbs in the ISS and elsewhere is also used to assist in the recovery of natural disasters.
