Explore research results reported in scientific publications collected from researchers who have used the the space station for their investigations.
Learn about science on the International Space Station and the groundbreaking results contributed by all partner agencies. On Nov. 2, 2025, humanity marked a cosmic milestone: 25 years of continuous human presence on the International Space Station.
This achievement is a testament to international collaboration, human ingenuity, and dedication to the mission of our laboratory in low Earth orbit. The 2025 Annual Highlights of Results includes a small subset of the scientific achievements across the space station partnership, showcasing the exceptional and diverse research capabilities of the orbiting laboratory and the global teams working around the clock to support its mission.iss073e0076065 — NASA astronaut Anne McClain helps NASA astronaut Jonny Kim conduct an ultrasound aboard the International Space Station.
Ultrasounds allow real-time observation of what is happening inside an astronaut’s body in space, such as changes in arteries and the effects of fluids shifting towards the head. In this photo, the checkup is being conducted as a part of the Thigh Cuff study, research to understand if wearing a tight cuff around the leg can help to mitigate headward fluid shifts. Credit.

NASA's Liquid Oxygen Flight Demonstration: A Step Towards Space Refueling and Sustainable Space TravelLOXSAT is a small-scale flight demonstration of a complete cryogenic oxygen fluid management system that will be the primary payload on a Rocket Lab Photon satellite. This mission aims to determine if technologies deemed necessary for creating practical propellant depots, which could be used for future long-distance crewed spaceflight, can efficiently store, control, transfer, and pressurize liquid oxygen in low-earth orbit. These capabilities would support longer and more substantial space missions with smaller crafts, potentially leading to new destinations such as the Moon, Mars, and other deep space destinations.
