The Space Station is traveling East -- the same direction the Earth rotates.
the iss orbit is an orbit which goes around the earth giving satalight signals
This is because of the Gravitational pull of the earth.
The ISS is in Low Earth Orbit and can be tracked by several sites on the internet. See related link
well you cant becaus the iss is trying to become the best team ther is
244 MILES
Earth's gravitational attraction keeps changing the direction of its movement continuously. This keeps orbits near Earth - such as the ISS - in an elliptical orbit.
ISS is an internationally developed research facility, which is being assembled in low Earth orbit.

This is hard to go through without a drawing, but let's try it: Draw the earth as a circle, with a center. Indicate the ISS with a dot. Draw a line from the earth's center to the ISS. Draw a line from the ISS tangent to the earth's surface. Draw the radius from the earth's center to the ISS horizon (the tangent point). A corollary in geometry tells us that a radius is perpendicular to a tangent. This is very helpful ... we know we have a right triangle. Hypotenuse is the line from the center to the ISS; its length is (earth radius)+(ISS altitude) = 3,970+240 = 4,210 miles. One leg = earth radius = 3,970 miles Other leg = distance from ISS to the horizon = sqrt[ hypotenuse2 - leg2 ] = sqrt(42102-39702) = 1,401 miles (rounded)
5800km /h and its the iss!
40,000 miles
