IN 1998,THE FIRST component of the International space station (ISS) were launched from Russia and the US.The ISS will provide a unique place to study the Earth , and to see ,how the sun;s violent eruptions affect the operation of the communications satellites , and the weather on the Earth .The effect of gravity inside the station will be minuscule and scientists will be able to study a myriad of subtle biological ,physical, and chemical reactions , which are impossible to duplicate on Earth.Complete construction will require a total of 45 space missions many hours of space walking by astronauts .The station is scheduled to be permanently crewed from the eighth misssion onwards.Astronauts will spend many months at a time on the station , testing equipments for future space exploration missions .
SLEEP IN SPACE.- Asrronauts sleep in an upright position so that they receive a constant flow of air .If they slept in horizontally , the effects of weightlessness could result in suffocation from exhaled carbon dioxide .Thus astronauts remains stationary by crossing his arms and using straps to anchor himself to the wall of the module.
MIR SPACE STATION -NOW referred to as Phase one of the International space station .Mir was home to American,Russian, and European astronauts as they learned to work together in space.
