The moon is significantly larger than a space station. The moon is a natural satellite that measures about 3,474 kilometers in diameter, whereas a space station, like the International Space Station, is much smaller, typically spanning around 100 meters in length.
The International Space Station orbits Earth at an average altitude of about 420 kilometers (260 miles).
The International Space Station orbits Earth at an average altitude of about 420 kilometers (260 miles).
Not very far. The International Space Station is in an orbit about 350 km (217 miles) above the earth's surface ... roughly the distance between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. The moon is about 1,100 times as far away, and the sun is about 425,000 times as far away.

No, the Salut 1 was not the first space station. The first space station was the Soviet space station Salyut 1, which was launched in 1971.
A space station is a satellite.
It is named the International Space Station or ISS.
