the International Space Station
No space station has orbited the moon. The first earth-orbiting space station was Skylab.
The joint space station currently orbiting Earth is called the International Space Station (ISS). It is a collaborative project involving space agencies from multiple countries, including NASA (United States), Roscosmos (Russia), ESA (Europe), JAXA (Japan), and CSA (Canada).
As of 2021, there are over 3,000 artificial satellites orbiting the Earth. Some well-known satellites include the International Space Station (ISS), Hubble Space Telescope, and Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites.
The first space station created only to orbit the earth was called plain old, 'Space Shuttle.'
Another name for a space station is an orbital station or an orbital outpost.

If you wanted to, you could call it the National Orbiting Vehicle-Launching Platform. But as soon as the newspapers got ahold of it, they would shorten the name down to something like "space station".
