ISS crews became a staple in 2000, and since its inception, it has hosted over two hundred astronauts from fifteen different nations.
On top of its efforts to help progress research, educational, and humanitarian efforts, its main goal is to pioneer collaborative scientific experimentation, research, and progress in space.
