00:00imagine a house the size of a football field orbiting above your head not on a
00:10mountain not in the clouds but in space just 400 kilometers above earth traveling
00:18at a blistering 28,000 kilometers per hour there is a home like no other the
00:24International Space Station or the ISS it circles 16 times a day that's 16 sun
00:34rises and sunsets in just 24 hours it's so bright you can spot it with the naked eye
00:42no telescopes needed the ISS is not just a marvel of engineering it's a floating
00:50laboratory a collaboration of nations a symbol of what humanity can achieve
00:56together and now it is preparing for a new mission on June the 10th 2025 axiom 4 a
01:04private astronaut mission will launch aboard a SpaceX Dragon spacecraft carrying
01:11out science experiments on muscle regeneration algae growth microorganism
01:16survival and even how humans interact with screens in microgravity so what
01:23exactly is the International Space Station what secrets does it hold what
01:29happens inside the flying home in the sky and what will become of it in the
01:33future let's take a journey inside
01:38the story of the ISS began decades ago its blueprint was drafted between late
01:501980s and the early 90s the first module was launched in 1998 and over the next
01:57few years it grew piece by piece like a cosmic jigsaw puzzle assembled through 48
02:04flights and contributions from over a dozen countries
02:15here is a fun fact since November 2000 not a single day has passed without
02:21someone living aboard imagine this over 24 years of human inhabitation and working
02:27in space it's now larger than a six bedroom house with six sleeping quarters two
02:35bathrooms a gym and even a panoramic 360 degree window the famous cupola at any
02:42time up to eight spacecraft can dock the space station can recycle 65 percent of its
02:48water thanks to a high-tech purification system it's powered by over 50
02:55computers and built with eight miles of wiring with a pressurized volume equal to
03:00a Boeing 747 in 24 years over 280 astronauts from 23 countries have called it
03:08home even celebrated birthdays holidays and even ran a marathon in space and
03:15speaking of that did you know that Sunita Williams was the first astronaut to do
03:20this in 2007 in four hours and 24 minutes running the Boston Marathon in space and
03:27Tim Peake later completed the London Marathon while on the ISS in 2016 this
03:34marvel wasn't made by one country it's run by a coalition National Aeronautics and
03:40Space Administration NASA from USA Roscosmos from Russia European Space Agency ESA
03:46from Europe Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency Zaxa from Japan and Canadian Space Agency CSA
03:53so what's life like aboard a weightless home picture this no up no down you float through
04:10the day eating sleeping working even crying in microgravity is different the ISS is split
04:18into two main areas the Russian orbital segment and the US segment which includes parts from Europe
04:25Japan and Canada propulsion that's handled by Russian modules balance in orientation controlled
04:33by American gyroscopes electricity flows in from giant solar arrays generating up to 90
04:40kilowatts air and water are recycled to make long-term space stays possible
04:46astronauts work hard conducting science experiments performing repairs during space
04:52walks and coordinating with mission control centers in Houston Moscow Tokyo Montreal and Europe
04:59Europe and yes they share their home with microbes bacteria and fungi his rights to helping researchers
05:08to study everything from human health to disease and even space hygiene this is not just science
05:15it's survival training for life beyond earth think of the ISS as a floating lego city every module every component fits together to form a perfectly balanced machine here is a guided tour first up are solar arrays these are giant panels that collect sunlight and power the entire station
05:42they stretch like wings collecting sunlight and converting it into electricity to power the entire station it also has rollout solar arrays from NASA that provide additional power to augment the existing power supply they roll up like a yoga mat and still pack in 20 plus kilowatts of energy a 30% power boost
06:07another element in the space station another element in the space station is laboratory module Europe's columbus
06:14Japanese kibo and us's destiny lab are where the magic happens columbus has four special mounting platforms on its outside where equipment can be attached for space science watching earth and testing new technology columbus led scientists on earth with the help from the astronauts on the station do different kinds of experiments in
06:36in zero gravity besides working inside some experiments can also be done outside the lab in the vacuum of space
06:43kibo Japanese co-hope is a space research facility enabling astronauts to investigate a variety of space phenomena experiments range from biology physics technology and more and take place in kibo's numerous research
06:59research rags and us destiny is the primary research laboratory for us payloads supporting a range of experiments and studies contributing to health safety and quality of life
07:14the ISS also has living modules with spaces like harmony and tranquility where astronauts eat sleep and exercise harmony acts like a main hallway connecting different parts of the station providing air
07:28power and water to other modules meanwhile tranquility is an extra room and
07:35is home to important life support systems that clean the air make oxygen and recycle water it also houses a bathroom a
07:44treadmill and other exercise equipment to help astronauts stay healthy in space a waste and hygiene compartment is also located here
07:53overall harmony and tranquility can be called the heart of daily life complete with toilets that sanction waste water systems that turn urine into drinking water and exercise equipment to fight muscle loss
08:08the ISS also has a storage module the Italian permanent multi-purpose module and Russian rasvid serve as the floating closets and cargo bays
08:18Italian built permanent multi-purpose storage module can hold up to 16 racks of equipment experiments and supplies it also has an end cone that has additional storage space for cargo bags and other items
08:33Russia's Russia's rasvid mini research module is also used for cargo storage
08:40the ISS also features docking modules the docking ports Russian pritchell and poisk are special doors for spaceships to park
08:49pritchell has five available docking ports to accommodate Russian spacecraft while poisk also known as mini research module 2 provides support for docking of Soyuz cruise ship and progress cargo
09:02vehicles
09:04pritchell means dock and poisk means search in Russian
09:09the ISS also consists of airlocks quest and bishop airlocks on ISS are special compartments that let astronauts and equipment move safely between the inside of the station and the vacuum of space
09:23the quest airlock has two compartments the equipment lock for suit maintenance and the crew lock for spacewalk exits
09:30the space station has robotic helpers like Canadarm2 and Dexter for moving cargo and making repairs Dexter a robotic hand replaces batteries cameras and other equipment outside the station
09:45it's equipped with lights video tools and precision arms reducing the need for spacewalks
09:52it's controlled by teams at NASA and the Canadian Space Agency
09:57Canadarm2 a 57.7 foot robotic arm from Canada helped assemble the ISS its ends have hands called latching end effectors that grip objects or attach the arm to the station securely
10:07truss segments are the ISS backbone long sturdy beams that run across the space station called the integrated truss structure they support solar panels radiators and external experiments they hold power cables cooling pipes and rails for the robotic arm labelled P for port S for port
10:35S for a starboard and Z for Zenith they keep the station cool and structurally stable in space
10:42the cupola is an ultimate Earth viewer built by the European Space Agency it acts like a control tower with windows attached to the tranquility module it has seven windows including the largest window ever flown in space it offers astronauts a 360 degree view of Earth and beyond
11:04astronauts use it to operate the robotic arm monitor spacewalks and watch spacecraft come and go shutters protect the windows from debris and micro meteorites there is even a cosmic detective on board the ISS the alpha magnetic spectrometer searching for dark matter and antimatter by catching particles from space
11:11Beam expandable module is a soft sided inflatable habitat it requires minimal payload volume on a rocket by a large
11:33Beam expandable module is a soft-sided inflatable habitat.
11:37It requires minimal payload volume on a rocket but expand after being deployed in space.
11:44They also provide a varying degree of protection from solar and cosmic radiation, space debris,
11:51atomic oxygen, ultraviolet radiation, and other elements of the space environment.
11:57Each element plays its part. Together, they make the ISS what it is.
12:03A laboratory, a spacecraft, and a sanctuary in the stars.
12:18The ISS is like a giant floating laboratory where astronauts and scientists explore everything.
12:26From human health and new medicines to physics, biology, and technology that could shape our future.
12:34The International Space Station is home to thousands of experiments across many fields of science.
12:41Some experiments focus on how living things like plants, animals, and even human cells react to microgravity and space radiation.
12:51For example, scientists have studied how muscle and bone weaken in space, how plants grow without gravity,
12:59and how certain genes behave in space conditions.
13:03Other experiments look at materials and technology. These include testing new spacecraft materials,
13:10studying how flames behave without gravity, and developing better water purification systems.
13:16The ISS is also used to make new medicines and grow protein crystals that can help scientists develop drugs for diseases like cancer.
13:27There are also experiments to study Earth's atmosphere, climate, and natural disasters from space,
13:33as well as research into using lunar soil to make building materials for future moon bases.
13:38Over 3,000 scientific investigations from more than 100 countries have taken place aboard the ISS.
13:46The cupola offers stunning views, perfect for photography and spotting auroras from above.
13:52The ISS is also a testbed for future exploration. Technologies developed here will help us travel to the Moon,
14:01Mars, and beyond. And with private companies like SpaceX and Axiom Space now sending astronauts and cargo,
14:09the ISS is paving the way for commercial spaceflight and new space stations. The legacy of ISS will live on in the
14:17the discoveries made, the technologies developed, and the inspiration it provides to generations of explorers and dreamers.
14:36So what's next for ISS? As of now, NASA and its partners plan to keep this station running
14:43until at least 2030. After that, its fate is still being decided. Russia has announced that it will
14:51participate in the ISS until 2028 and plans to launch the first two modules of its own new space station in 2027.
15:03NASA is looking at commercial modules, like those being developed by Axiom Space,
15:08that could eventually take over as the next generation of orbital labs. When the time comes,
15:15the ISS will be carefully de-orbited using a special NASA aircraft. NASA announced that SpaceX
15:23has been selected to develop and deliver the US de-orbit vehicle that will provide the capability
15:29to de-orbit the space station and ensure avoidance of risk to populated areas.
15:35Based on behaviour observed during the re-entry of other large structures, NASA engineers expect
15:43break-up to occur as a sequence of three events. Solar array and radiator separation first, followed
15:49by break-up and separation of intact modules and the truss segment. And finally, individual module
15:55fragmentation and loss of structural integrity of the truss. As the debris continues to re-enter the
16:03atmosphere, the external skin of the modules is expected to melt away and expose internal hardware
16:09to rapid heating and melting. Most station hardware is expected to burn up or vaporize during the intense
16:16heating associated with atmospheric re-entry, whereas some denser or heat-resistant components like truss
16:23sections are expected to survive re-entry and splash down within an uninhabited region of the ocean.
16:30In the coming years, we'll see new modules, more private missions and even more groundbreaking research.
16:39The ISS will continue to inspire, educate and serve as a stepping stone for humanity's journey into deep space.
16:49For over two decades, the International Space Station has floated silently above us. A testament to what's
16:56possible when science, vision and humanity come together. It's more than a machine, it's a message
17:02that no matter how far we go, we go further together. For more such interesting stories, keep watching
