When the space station is finished, it will be like a city in space. People will stay and study there with many of the things they have at home. Laboratories, living rooms and power stations are being built. The ISS is the most expensive program. Billions of dollars are spent on it every year.
Scientists hope that the ISS will be a stepping stone for future space exploration. "The ISS will be more useful some day. The ISS will help us understand the human body better, explore space and study the earth. It can help us make life on the earth better," said Kathryn Clark, an ISS scientist.
Sixteen countries are part of the space program: the US, Russia, Canada, Japan, Brazil, and 11 European countries. China isn't an ISS country, but it has helped with some of the experiments. In 2003, China sent some rice up to the ISS to find out what space would do to it.

"Coach," the girl finally said, "Shouldn't I be learning more moves?"
"This is the only move you know and will need to know," the coach replied.
Not quite understanding, but believing in her teacher, the girl kept training.
Several months later, the coach took the girl to her first competition. The girl easily won her first two matches. The third match was more difficult, but after some time, she smartly used her one move to win the match. At last, she entered the finals.
This time, her opponent was bigger, stronger and more experienced. For a while, the girl seemed to fail. But after a while, to win, her opponent wanted to catch her left arm. This gave the girl a chance to use her move with her right hand to beat her opponent. Finally she won.
On the way home, the girl asked, "Coach, how did I win the competition with only one move?" "On the one hand, you've almost understood one of the most difficult throws in all of judo," the teacher answered, "On the other hand, the only known defense(破解) for that move is for your opponent to want to catch your left arm."
