The idea of creating the International Space Station (ISS) was first proposed by NASA in the early 1980s as part of the Freedom program. Prior to its current name, the ISS was known as "Freedom" in the United States and had various other design concepts in the 1990s. The project evolved through international collaboration, leading to the establishment of the ISS, which officially took its current name in 1998. The station symbolizes cooperation among multiple space agencies, including NASA, Roscosmos, ESA, JAXA, and CSA.

The International Space Station was assembled in orbit; it is much too large to have been launched as a single unit. Most of the component modules of the ISS were carried into orbit by one of the space shuttles, which always launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida.
