www.cbsnews.comDirect answer: Yes, people are living on the International Space Station, with crews rotating regularly as part of ongoing missions.
Key context:
- The ISS has had continuous human occupancy for many years, with crews typically consisting of NASA astronauts, Roscosmos cosmonauts, and international partners, rotating every few months. This arrangement has sustained long-term research in microgravity and life support experiments .
- Recent news indicates ongoing crew changes and medical evacuations at times, but the station remains continuously inhabited by a rotating multinational team. For example, reports in early 2026 describe new crews joining to replace evacuated members, keeping the station staffed .
