Hen was the International space station invented?
The International Space Station was first conceived in the early 80's as Space Station Freedom. It was originally intended to be a counter to the Russian Salyut and Mir space stations. At the same time, the Russians were developing Mir-2 as a replacement for the space station Mir. Because of budget and design contraints, Space Station Freedom never made it past minor tests. Shortly after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Mir-2 was also on the verge of being cancelled. Through international cooperation, both space station projects were revived. In 1993, the Clinton administration announced that Space Station Freedom, Mir-2, as well as Europe's Columbus Orbital Facility and Japan's Kibo would all be combined into one large space station: The International Space Station. In 1998, construction of the International Space Station finally began with the launch of Russia's Zarya module, originally designed for Mir-2. And now over 10 years later, ISS is almost complete.
