Stazione Spaziale Internazionale: com'è fatta, a cosa serve e come vivono gli astronauti nella ISS

The International Space Station (abbreviated ISS) is a space station in low Earth orbit, often visible from Earth. It was created through a collaboration between the space agencies of the United States (NASA), Russia (Roscosmos), Europe (ESA), Japan (JAXA), and Canada (CSA-ASC). Its structure resembles a giant LEGO set, with 17 modules assembled together at an altitude of approximately 400 km above Earth's surface. But what is the International Space Station made of, what exactly is it used for, and what do astronauts really do inside it?
