Since 2000, there have been positions in the ISS and about two hundred scientists. They have tested and conducted thousands of subjects including technology, medicine.

The space station is now running at a speed of 17,500 miles per hour with more than four hundred kilometers. That means, the way the station is traveling every day, it is the same path to return to the moon from Earth and return. Its brightness in the night sky is equivalent to Venus. From the surface it is seen from the naked eye. However, the observer must know its position.
