The Moon is the only natural satellite that our planet has, it has a lot of craters.. It is also the only space body in our solar system the humans have set foot on - Neil Armstrong was the first man on the moon. It is one-quarter the diameter of Earth, it is the 5th largest natural satellite in the solar system. It controls tides..!
The Sun is the star at the center of the Solar System, it is a nearly perfect sphere of hot plasma, heated to incandescence by nuclear fusion reactions in its core. Its what provides light and life to Earth.
And of course, Earth is our beautiful blue planet. And the only known planet in the solar system with life. Because of its distance to the sun, it is in the goldilocks zone!
The International Space Station is a modular space station in low Earth orbit. It is a multinational collaborative project involving five participating space agencies: NASA, Roscosmos, JAXA, ESA, and CSA. The ownership and use of the space station is established by intergovernmental treaties and agreements. The International Space Station also holds ASTRONAUTS and they perform space walks.
