A space station is a large, human-made structure designed to remain in low Earth orbit for extended periods of time. It serves as a research laboratory, living quarters, and a platform for scientific experiments in a microgravity environment. Space stations are equipped with life support systems to provide oxygen, water, and food for astronauts, allowing them to live and work in space for months or years. The most prominent example is the International Space Station (ISS), which is a collaboration between multiple countries and agencies, including NASA, ESA, Roscosmos, JAXA, and CSA. Space stations enable advances in various fields such as physics, biology, astronomy, and engineering by facilitating experiments that cannot be conducted on Earth. They also play a vital role in preparing for future deep space exploration and missions to destinations like the Moon and Mars.
