How does the International Space Station work?

Watch more Space Animations: The International Space Station is the largest man made object in space. It was built in pieces and then launched into space and assembled in orbit. In this video we’ll go over some background about the station and then walk through each module in the order that it was assembled. This animation took a long time to make - enjoy and please share your comments with me! This video has been dubbed using an artificial voice via to increase accessibility. You can change the audio track language in the Settings menu. ⌚Timestamps: 00:00 - Intro 00:26 - Plans for the Station 01:05 - About the Station 01:51 - Countries Involved 02:02 - Parts of the Station 02:43 - Launch Vehicles 03:02 - Timeline 03:12 - Assembly 08:48 - Future of the ISS Follow me on social media!
