The International Space Station (ISS) is in low Earth orbit, approximately 400 kilometers above the Earth's surface, where it experiences microgravity conditions. This altitude allows the ISS to maintain a balance between gravitational pull and its orbital velocity, preventing it from falling back to Earth while still being close enough for easy access for resupply missions and crewed flights. Additionally, being in the atmosphere's upper layers provides some protection from space debris and radiation while enabling scientific research in a unique environment.
It is named the International Space Station or ISS.
MIR is Russian for "peace or world". It was a Russian space station that was the first inhabited space station in space. It was in operation from 1986 til 2001 when it's orbit was allowed to degenerate and burnt up in the Earths atmosphere. It should not be confused with the International Space Station or ISS which is a separate space station. See related links for more information

There is no current US space station. The last US space station was called SkyLab - but it entered Earth's atmosphere in 1979. The US (through NASA) currently uses the International Space Station or ISS.
