International and Mir
There is currently one space station in the U.S., which is the International Space Station (ISS). The ISS is a joint project involving multiple countries, including the U.S., and serves as a research laboratory in low Earth orbit.
Skylab was the first space station launched and operated by NASA from 1973 to 1979. The first space station was launched by the Soviet Union in 1971.The core module for the International Space Station was launched in 1998.
The more popular of bunch would be the Mir ( Russia ) and Skylab ( USA ). They are currently working on ISS ( International Space Station ), which is a joint effort of the US, Russia, Japan, Canada, and other small countries.
Some notable space stations currently in orbit include the International Space Station (ISS), Tiangong Space Station (China), and Mir-2 (Russia). These space stations are used for scientific research, international cooperation, and testing technologies for future space missions.

All total Theres been three Mir, Skylab and the ISS. Mir and Skylab burned up so onlt the ISS is up there

A large artificial satellite in which people can live for long periods is known as a space station. Space stations are designed to support human life in the harsh environment of space by providing living quarters, workspaces, and facilities for research and experimentation. Examples of space stations include the International Space Station (ISS) and the planned Chinese Space Station.
The first segment of the ISS (Zarya) was launched on 20 November, 1998.
ISS is in the orbit of earth, it is moving around the earth as the moon is moving, it completes one obhit in 90 minutes, i.e. 45 min. day and 45 min night
Moons are natural satellites that orbit planets, such as Earth's Moon, while international space stations are artificial structures in space where astronauts live and work, such as the International Space Station (ISS). Both moons and space stations play key roles in space exploration and scientific research.
Microgravity research, ISS component delivery, satellite launch, ferrying astronauts to space stations & satellite repair.
