the iss orbit is an orbit which goes around the earth giving satalight signals
Orbital times vary as a function of the height of the orbiting vehicle or object. The higher its altitude, the longer it takes to make an orbit. The ISS and space shuttle are in low earth orbit and take approximately ninety minutes to complete one orbit.
No
It takes about 2 days for the Space Shuttle to reach the ISS.
Its on-orbit assembly began in 1998.

The ISS is in Low Earth Orbit and can be tracked by several sites on the internet. See related link
40,000 miles
Yes.
The ISS was planned to be decommissioned, de-orbited and destroyed in 2016. Now, it's quite possible that the ISS decommissioning date will be stretched until 2020 or beyond.
Do you mean how long does it take Mercury to orbit the sun ? 87.969 days
The International Space Station, or ISS, has been assembled in orbit from parts built here on Earth. The first segments of the ISS were launched into space in 1998, with other parts being added by several Space Shuttle missions. The ISS is not yet complete, and more parts are still under construction.
