The International Space Station is raised using thrusters on board or by visiting spacecraft. These thrusters propel the station to higher orbits by changing its speed and altitude. Additionally, the station can also be raised by docked spacecraft applying thrust in the opposite direction of the station's movement to gradually increase its altitude.
The speed of the ISS is about 28000 Km/h or about 17,000 mph at an altitude of 300 to 400 kilometres.
A space station typically orbits Earth at an altitude of around 400 kilometers. It travels around the Earth at a speed of approximately 28,000 kilometers per hour, completing one orbit every 90 minutes.
The average speed of the International Space Station is 17,221 miles per hour. It completes an orbit every 91.48 minutes at an average altitude of 222.3 miles.
The International Space Station orbits Earth at an average altitude of about 250 miles (400 kilometers).

The International Space Station (ISS) orbits at an altitude of 278 to 460 km (173 to 286 miles), and orbits the Earth about once every 92 minutes.
The average speed of the International Space Station is 17,221 miles per hour. It completes an orbit every 91.48 minutes at an average altitude of 222.3 miles.
The International Space Station orbits Earth at an average altitude of about 250 miles (400 kilometers).
The International Space Station's altitude varies from 199 miles to 215 miles or 319.6 km to 346.9 km above the Earth's surface.
The International Space Station orbits Earth at an average altitude of about 420 kilometers, or roughly 260 miles above the surface.
NASA has not had its own space station since Skylab re-entered Earth's atmosphere in 1979. The International Space Station is a joint project between NASA, the European Space Agency, and the space agencies of Russia, Japan, Canada and Brazil. It orbits Earth at an altitude of about 220 miles, and completes 15.7 orbits per day.
The International Space Station orbits Earth at an altitude of around 420 kilometers (261 miles) above the surface.
