∙ 15y agoSo far, there have only been three real "space stations".
1. Skylab
2. Mir
3. International Space Station, originally named "Freedom".
Skylab and Mir were each destroyed when they re-entered the Earth's atmosphere. The ISS is still on orbit, and you can often see it passing overhead. See the "Satellite Overflights" link to get a schedule of when the ISS (and other interesting satellites) will pass over your location. The ISS is easily visible even with city lights around.
