NASA launched a space station in 2008 with the help of the world. The International Space Station (ISS) is a project made with the help of 15 different countries.The ISS partners are Canada, Japan, the Russian Federation, the United States, and eleven Member States of the European Space Agency (Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom).
The ISS does not belong to any single country but belongs to all of them. The ISS partners have an agreement called the IGA (intergovernmental agreement).
The recent news is that a new company, Orbital Sciences, will send food to the ISS in an unmanned rocket, and on their first shipment, one of the food items that they are sending is chocolates!
NASA is planning to send chocolate to the astronauts through the space station delivery of food. It appears that the astronauts are very excited for the chocolate coming with the food. In an interview, astronaut Karen Nyberg, said that they are excitedly waiting for the chocolates.
