International Space Station marks 25 years of continuous human presence in orbit

The International Space Station (ISS) marks 25 years of continuous human presence in orbit. This milestone celebrates a quarter-century of international collaboration and scientific advancement. Since November 2000, the ISS has hosted over 290 individuals from 26 countries, facilitating thousands of experiments and serving as a crucial training ground for future deep space missions. The station, a testament to global cooperation, is slated for decommissioning in 2030, with plans for its controlled deorbit into the Pacific Ocean.
