Since the completion of the International Space Station in 2000, humans have continuously occupied space, demonstrating the commitment to long-term operations in orbit.
The International Space Station is scheduled for a controlled reentry over the Pacific in 2031, a planned end for this landmark facility due to its aging structure.
Over the years, crewed space stations have evolved, with early Soviet models lasting less than two weeks, while Mir, the last Soviet station, remained operational for a remarkable 15 years.
NASA's Skylab, as the sole American station, was pivotal for advancing our understanding of human adaptation in space, setting numerous endurance records during its operational years.
