Discover the only National Laboratory located in low Earth orbit -- advancing science in space for life on Earth.
About us
In 2005, Congress designated the U.S. portion of the ISS as the nation’s newest national laboratory to maximize its use for improving quality of life on Earth, promoting collaboration among diverse users, and advancing science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education. This unique laboratory environment is now available for use by non-NASA U.S. government agencies, academic institutions, and the private sector, providing these customers access to a permanent microgravity setting, a powerful vantage point in low Earth orbit, and the extreme and varied environments of space. The ISS National Lab is managed by the Center for the Advancement for Science in Space, under agreement with NASA.

Thanks to our friends at NASA Marshall Space Flight Center for these #spooky images from their various meteor cameras. Through the years, these cameras— part of a network meant to watch the skies for fireballs— managed to catch some unexpected visitors in the process! #Halloween #ThingsThatGoBumpInTheNight

In October, we #thinkpink, and for a good reason—one out of every eight women will be diagnosed with #breastcancer in their lifetime, and each year, 2 million women are given this frightening diagnosis. 🎗️ #Biotechnology startup MicroQuin used the microgravity environment of space in an effort to learn how breast and prostate cancer cells develop and grow but "found something incredible that could lead to a way to treat not just breast and prostate cancers but all cancers." Details are in the latest issue of Upward, the official magazine of the ISS National Lab: https://ow.ly/T5L450TUVX2
