The atmosphere of the space station is the same as on Earth, 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen.
It's not in the atmosphere.
The space station layer is in the mesosphere.
The space station is not too far out of the Earths atmosphere so they just send up a space shuttle!
Thermosphere.
There is no current US space station. The last US space station was called SkyLab - but it entered Earth's atmosphere in 1979. The US (through NASA) currently uses the International Space Station or ISS.
about 350 miles is where the international space station is.
Basically, they build the space station on the ground first, then they break it into parts small enough to fit in the shuttle, and reassemble it in space. They are still making improvements on the space station today.
No, the Russian space station Mir was deorbited and intentionally burned up in Earth's atmosphere in 2001 after 15 years in orbit. It re-entered the Earth's atmosphere and its debris fell into the South Pacific Ocean.
MIR is Russian for "peace or world". It was a Russian space station that was the first inhabited space station in space. It was in operation from 1986 til 2001 when it's orbit was allowed to degenerate and burnt up in the Earths atmosphere. It should not be confused with the International Space Station or ISS which is a separate space station. See related links for more information
above the msosphere and below the exosphere sumwhere around there Its orbit is in the thermosphere which is approximately at a altitude of 300km. it is above the mesosphere and below the exosphere.
The Mir space station, once it was no longer maintained did not maintain it's orbit. As it's orbit decayed it entered the Earth's atmosphere. Frictional heating caused the space station to burn and break up.
Skylab, though it was launched in 1973 and destroyed in 1979, when its orbit decayed enough to allow it to re-enter the Earth's atmosphere.
