View of Earth from the International Space Station (ISS) A few ISS facts: - The first piece of the ISS was launched in November 1998 - Travel speed is approx. 8 km/s (5 miles/second) - ISS orbits at an altitude of approx. 400 km (250 miles) - It falls towards Earth continually due to atmospheric friction and requires periodic rocket firings to boost the orbit Credits: NASA / ESRS. #space #astronomy #nasa | Josh Universe

The International Space Station (ISS) orbits Earth at an astonishing speed of 28,000 km/h (17,500 mph), completing a full orbit in just 90 minutes! Meanwhile, Earth's surface rotates at a much slower pace—about 1,670 km/h (1,037 mph) at the equator. We created this animation to visually compare these two speeds, revealing just how fast the ISS moves relative to Earth's rotation. We also visualized the orbital path of the ISS, showing how it continuously circles Earth in a wave-like pattern due t
