The Space Station is a 3D virtual gallery on MyGallery3D, a walkable online exhibition of 16 works. Step inside and explore it in your browser: no app, no headset.
A 3D virtual museum of the International Space Station: a laboratory the size of a football pitch, assembled in orbit, permanently crewed since the year 2000.
Every image in this online exhibition was made by NASA and is in the public domain. Each label carries the mission or observatory that captured it, the date, and a link to read more.

Pictured is an artist's concept of the International Space Station (ISS) with solar panels fully deployed. In addition to the use of solar energy, the ISS will employ at least three types of propulsive support systems for its operation: the first type is to reboost the Station to correct orbital altitude to offset the effects of atmospheric and other drag forces; the second function is to maneuver the ISS to avoid collision with orbiting bodies (space junk); the third is for attitude control to position the Station in the proper attitude for various experiments, temperature control, reboost, etc.
The ISS, a gateway to permanent human presence in space, is a multidisciplinary laboratory, technology test bed, and observatory that will provide an unprecedented undertaking in scientific, technological, and international experimentation by cooperation of sixteen countries.
