Relying too much on the offensive weapons of their acute angles instead of the defensive organs of good sense and seasonable simulation, these reckless creatures too often neglect the prescribed construction of the women's apartments, or irritate their wives by ill-advised expressions out of doors, which they refuse immediately to retract.
The International Space Station travels in orbit around Earth at a speed of roughly 17,150 miles per hour (that's about 5 miles per second!). This means that the Space Station orbits Earth (and sees a sunrise) once every 92 minutes!
From its orbit about 280 miles (450 kilometers) above Earth's surface, the ISS takes just 90 minutes to make a full circle around the planet. The space station isn't always visible at night when it passes overhead, because it spends about 30 percent of its time cloaked by Earth's shadow. (See a picture of a solar eclipse as viewed from the ISS .).
