The Universe is a big place, and we can see only our own tiny corner of it. We're aware of only two at the present time; the International Space Station built primarily by the United States but with the assistance and components of Russia, the European Space Agency, Canada and Japan, and the Chinese space station which is only intermittently inhabited.

Two previous space stations were destroyed when their orbits decayed and they fell back into the atmosphere; the US "Skylab" and the Soviet "Mir".


There might be other space stations in our solar system, but we haven't discovered any yet. In other solar systems, or in other galaxies? If intelligent life ever developed on other worlds, it's likely that they built their own space stations, but of course, we have no knowledge of any of that. With our current technology, we're right at the limit detecting other PLANETS; other space stations would be impossible to detect.

Ask again in a thousand years.
