International Space Station

   First the United States and 15 other nations all had huge parts in assembling this space station. We put the most into our space exploration and Russia put in the second most. There are many laboratories onboard of the station to test different things. For example: they grow cells and viruses and bacteria because there is no pull of gravity on them to change them. There are also other things that surprisingly grow better in space such as some crystals and other items. This is interesting because there is a lot of information telling what each nation brought to the table, what we worked on together, and separate.
