Station is more than an orbital outpost. Station is an orbiting laboratory! The International Space Station carries with it a spectacular research facility able to support hundreds of experiments at any given time. Benefit 1: The station offers researchers one-of-a-kind experimental features not available anywhere on Earth including exposure to the harsh space environment, long-duration microgravity, and a novel view of our planet. This allows scientists the opportunity to conduct innovative research which has led to groundbreaking discoveries back on Earth. Want more?
