Sixteen sunrises a day! That's what you get aboard the International Space Station (ISS). In this image, sunrise peeks through the station's solar-arrays, which generate power for the station and its more than 250 experiments. Currently, there is a six-person crew living and working aboard the orbital platform. The station’s experiments include some that are helping us determine the effects of microgravity on the human body. Research on the station will not only help us send humans deeper into space than ever before, including to Mars, but also benefits life here on Earth.
