In total, this means the space laboratory has traveled about 2.6 billion miles, “or roughly the distance between Earth and Neptune,” NASA said in a video description<\/a>.\u00a0It takes about 90 minutes for the station to make a complete orbit of Earth, and crewmembers on the station experience about 16 sunrises and sunsets per day.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
