Publisher's Synopsis
The International Space Station (ISS) is a structure unlike any other--and not just because it was built in space. The station is so huge, it had to be flown into space in pieces. Astronauts put it together as it orbited the Earth at over 17,000 miles per hour. From farfetched ideas through painstaking trial and error, find out how the ISS came to be, about the people who made it. happen, and about the future of space exploration.
