Is there a secret space station?
Logically, if there was a secret space station, no one - we - wouldn't know about it.It's highly unlikely that there is one because all the necessary maintenance, rocket launches on a scale required for space station wouldn't go unnoticed. Also, space station would be clearly visible for amateur astronomers all over the world.

What are the advantages of the International Space Station?
The station offers an advantage over spacecrafts such as NASA's Space Shuttle because it is a long-term platform, in the space environment, allowing duration studies to be performed, both on specific experiments and on the human crews that operate them.
What is the record stay on the International Space Station?
The record for the longest stay on the International Space Station is held by a Russian cosmonaut. Sergei Avdeyev earned the record by staying aboard for just over 747 days.

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.
Why was the space station Mir launched into space?
When Mir was deorbited in 2001 it had been in space for over 15 years. It had already surpassed its certified orbital lifetime. Not only was it falling apart (it became cluttered and had suffered both interior and exterior damage) but it was also being outdated. At the time of decommissioning the International Space Station was already in mid consturction and logistically and financially it would be unfeasible for Russia to have two space stations in orbit.
