There are three people permanently on the station, the crew that rotates out periodically. When the shuttle goes up, it carries up to seven additional people so we can have as many as ten at a time when the shuttle is there. And when Russian ships come up, usually there are two people aboard, so there's either three, five or ten people on the station
