How does gravity affect the space station?
The International space station is constantly falling towards Earth under the pull of Earth's gravity (Just like any other object - gravity does not stop when you reach space!). However the Station is moving very fast horizontally and, as the Earth is a sphere, this means that as it falls its path takes it round the Earth in a circle - it is in "orbit". This means that if you are in the space station you are falling as fast as gravity can pull you and therefore you do not feel the pull of gravity, making you weightless.

Why was the space station Mir launched into space?
When Mir was deorbited in 2001 it had been in space for over 15 years. It had already surpassed its certified orbital lifetime. Not only was it falling apart (it became cluttered and had suffered both interior and exterior damage) but it was also being outdated. At the time of decommissioning the International Space Station was already in mid consturction and logistically and financially it would be unfeasible for Russia to have two space stations in orbit.
