Such was the station a year ago: 19th June 2007 View of the International Space Station aboard space shuttle Atlantis.
And so - at the very beginning of its history. 6th December 1998 shuttle Endeavour delivered the unit «Unity» (in the foreground) to the Russian bloc "Dawn" (on a background of clouds in the distance), running on the first segment of the ISS orbit.
December 4, 1998 Docking American bloc «Unity», delivered into orbit space shuttle "Endeavour» c Russian bloc "Dawn" with the help of the shuttle arm. In its cargo bay of a large-format camera installed IMAX, which makes this picture.
Stacked "Dawn" and «Unity» in free flight on 4 December 1998. The view from the space shuttle "Endeavour".
The picture of the ISS on October 11th 2000. In the coming days, the station configuration is changed. Currently station consists of blocks (left to right) «Unity», «Star," "Dawn" and the cargo ship "Progress". Expected completion of block Z1 Truss and third docking port

On February 16th, 2001. View space shuttle Atlantis from the ISS.
Transport ship Soyuz 14 (TMA-10)
12th expedition to the ISS released a free flight to orbit a satellite suit, called SuitSat - unnecessary Russian spacesuit Orlan, equipped with batteries and a radio transmitter that broadcast recording votes pupils with a message to amateur radio operators around the world. Spacesuit entered the atmosphere and burned a few weeks later.

Atlantis before docking with the ISS on February 9th, 2008. Armed with photographic equipment with 400 and 800 mm lenses, the station crew spent photographing the shuttle heat shield panels and send them for analysis of security in mission control.

Astronaut Robert L. Curbeam photographed a member of Expedition 1 in the Destiny laboratory of the newly established during the second of three spacewalks on February 12th, 2001. Previously, the term astronauts connect several computers and electrical cables between the dock port and the laboratory. (NASA)
"Phantom Torso" on 13th May 2001 in the laboratory Destiny on the International Space Station (ISS). It is designed to measure the effect of radiation on the organs in the human body. The trunk is equivalent to the height, density and weight of the average adult male. It comprises a radiation sensor which is recorded in real time as the radiation produced brain, thyroid, heart, lung area, and so on. D. The data will be used to determine how the body protects the internal organs of their radiation. The information will be important for a long-term space flights. (NASA)
August 11th, 2007. In the center of one of the main elements of the Mobile Servicing System MSS (Mobile Servicing System) - Space Station Remote Manipulator SSRMS (Space Station Remote Manipulator System). Manipulator station is designed and manufactured by the Canadian company MD Robotics, a division of the firm Macdonald, Dettwiler and Associates Ltd. under contract to the Canadian Space Agency (CSA *). MD Robotics (Brampton, Ontario), formerly known as Spar Space Systems and was a subsidiary of Spar Aerospace Ltd. It is designed to perform operations on the construction of the ISS and service stations throughout its flight. Manipulator SSRMS, along with some other elements of the MSS, Canada's contribution to the International Space Station project. Manipulator SSRMS, later named with Canadarm2 («Canadian hand-2"), is the second generation of Canadian firms manipulators MD Robotics. Manipulators first generation RMS (Canadarm) for almost 20 years used the shuttle (see. Table). At the moment, there are three operating manipulator Canadarm.
Astronaut Stephen Robinson moved to porstranstve around the station with the help of Canadarm2 during mission STS-114 space shuttle "Discovery" in August 2005.
