The International Space Station from Above

The International Space Station (ISS) is the largest human-made object ever to orbit the Earth. The ISS is so large that it can be seen drifting overhead with the unaided eye, and is frequently imaged from the ground in picturesque fashion. Last month, the station was visited again by space shuttle, which resupplied the station and added a new module. The ISS is currently operated by the Expedition 22 crew, now consisting five astronauts including two supplied by USA's NASA, two by Russia's RKA, and one by Japan's JAXA. After departing the ISS, the crew of the space shuttle Endeavour captured the above spectacular vista of the orbiting space city high above the clouds, waters, and lands of Earth. Visible components include modules, trusses, and expansive solar arrays that gather sunlight that is turned into needed electricity.

China to launch module for future space station in 2011

China to launch module for future space station in 2011 17:2603/03/2010 MOSCOW, March 3 (RIA Novosti) - China is planning to launch in 2011 a spacecraft equipped with two docking ports to serve as a basis for the country's future space station, the Xinhua news agency said on Wednesday. The 8.5-ton Tiangong-1 spacecraft will be put into orbit by a modified CZ-2F/G carrier rocket and will mark the first stage of China's three-stage Project 921 human spaceflight program. The launch will most likely be carried out from the new Wenchang space center on Hainan Island. Xinhua cited Qi Faren, former chief designer of China's Shenzhou spaceships, as saying that the country planned to launch the unmanned Shenzhou-8, and the manned Shenzhou-9 and Shenzhou-10 spacecraft within two years to dock with Tiangong-1, which will be later used as a space lab
