NASA App brings International Space Station to your fingertips

The NASA App is very useful for space enthusiasts. It hosts a lot of information on the latest happening in space.

The ISS (International Space Station) is a microgravity Environment in Space where crew members conduct biology, physics, astronomy, and meteorology experiments.

Till now, ISS is widely considered as an unassailable sight for common people. But now, things are going to change, as NASA has developed an app that provides information on ISS experiments and research results through videos, photos, and interactive media.

This Space Station Research Explorer contains various sections which can be used for navigation and exploration as per your wish. For example, this app includes an experiment section, and clicking here will unleash six categories and their subcategories.

There is also a media section in the app, and this will help you access podcasts, games, and videos.
