Real-time orbital monitoring
Live telemetry, crew manifest, and orbital position data for the International Space Station - updated every second.
The International Space Station is a modular space station in low Earth orbit - the largest crewed object ever assembled in space. Orbiting at approximately 408 km altitude, it completes a full revolution of Earth every 90 minutes at 28,000 km/h.
A collaborative project between NASA, Roscosmos, ESA, JAXA, and CSA, the ISS has maintained a continuous human presence since November 2000. Its pressurized modules host cutting-edge research in biology, physics, astronomy, and meteorology - experiments only possible in the microgravity environment of orbit. Read more at NASA →
