6 Oct. 2018. Space travel has captivated our imaginations for centuries, and the International Space Station circling the earth represents a continuing laboratory for learning more about humans living in space. In addition, the ISS shows how people from different nations and cultures can collaborate toward a common goal, a lesson for which the world needs an occasional reminder.<\/p>\n

Yesterday, our friends at Statista<\/a> published a chart showing the nations represented among ISS crew members since it become operational, our infographic for this weekend. Data for this chart were collected by NASA<\/a> earlier this year. The U.S. sent the most crew members so far, followed by Russia, Japan, and Canada.<\/p>\n

We report from time to time on work going on at the ISS, mainly biomedical experiments, with a few recent links from Science & Enterprise given below.<\/p>\n
