The International Space Station-also known as the ISS-was a man-made satellite that orbited 220 miles, or 354 kilometers, above Earth. “It’s not a star,” he said, “but the International Space Station-the brightest light in the night sky.” “Do you see that star over there?” asked Jack's friend Richard, pointing to a brilliant white light. As part of the activities, his troop leader had told Jack and the other boys to observe the night sky, try to spot the constellations and think about the possibility of life beyond planet Earth. He was with his local Scouts group on a camping trip in the New Forest in England. It was a clear, dark night, and Jack Stalwart was lying on his back gazing at the stars.
