International Space Station, artwork C018 / 3554
International Space Station (ISS), artwork. The ISS, built in stages since 1998, is a collaborative project between the national space agencies of the USA, Canada, Japan, Russia and Europe. It is a modular structure, consisting of a number of modules, trusses and arrays of solar panels. The ISS operates as a microgravity and space environment research laboratory, with experiments conducted by crew members. Orbiting at an altitude of around 360 kilometres, it has been crewed since 2000, and will remain operational until at least 2020. Since 2011, it has been supplied by Soyuz and Progress spacecraft, and various automated transfer vehicles

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the International Space Station (ISS), a remarkable collaborative project between the national space agencies of the USA, Canada, Japan, Russia, and Europe. The ISS is an awe-inspiring modular structure that has been built in stages since 1998. It consists of various modules, trusses, and arrays of solar panels that enable it to operate as both a microgravity environment and a research laboratory for conducting experiments. Orbiting at an altitude of approximately 360 kilometers above Earth's surface, the ISS has been continuously crewed since 2000 and will remain operational until at least 2020. Its vital supplies are delivered by Soyuz and Progress spacecraft as well as automated transfer vehicles since 2011. The artwork beautifully captures the technological marvels involved in this international endeavor. It represents not only scientific progress but also symbolizes unity among nations with different backgrounds coming together for exploration beyond our planet's boundaries. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of humanity's relentless pursuit to unravel mysteries beyond our own atmosphere. The ISS serves as a testament to mankind's ingenuity and determination to push boundaries further into space exploration in the twenty-first century. This print is a stunning reminder of how far we have come technologically while igniting curiosity about what lies ahead for manned spaceflight and scientific discoveries within our solar system and beyond.
