It's 350 kilometres above us, has circled the earth more than 57,000 times at a speed of 28,000 kilometres per hour: it's the International Space Station and it's 10 years old today. Construction began in 1998, and the space station has, over the years, been much maligned. But it's also been home to astronauts from all over the world, who continue building it today. So what has the space station achieved so far? And is the continuing criticism of the program justified?
