About This Trend

International Space Station (ISS) is a large, collaborative space station in low Earth orbit, maintained by NASA, Roscosmos, ESA, JAXA, and CSA.

The ISS is trending due to the recent return of NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore, who spent over nine months aboard the station, marking one of the longest missions in history. Their safe splashdown aboard the SpaceX Dragon capsule concludes a record-breaking stay.
