On November 2nd this year, just a few weeks after the conclusion of IAC 2025 in Sydney, a very special anniversary will take place: 25 years of continuous human presence in lower Earth orbit onboard the International Space Station. This is a significant milestone in the history of human space exploration, as the ISS has become a beacon in the sky and an iconic symbol of collaboration, resilience and engineering prowess.

Despite technical challenges and an ever-changing geopolitical landscape, the ISS has steadily accomplished its mission to conduct research, pushing the boundary of knowledge, welcoming more than 280 crew members from two dozen countries, and paving the way for the next generation of space explorers.

As humans move on to other outposts and travel to farther destinations in the next decade, come and join a panel of veteran astronauts as they reflect on the lessons learned from ISS, from its planning, integration and assembly, to its peaceful and collaborative operation.
