In 1998, construction started on one of the most ambitious international projects of all time. Now two decades later, it continues to bring us life-altering science and technology.

This week, Jud and AJ will explore how its in-orbit assembly went off (mostly) without a hitch. Then, they'll discuss their favorite products and achievements that have resulted from the stations thousands of experiments.

Additional Topics Include: A new super-sonic passenger aircraft, "knocker-uppers", Febreze, and if a bird can fly in zero-Gs.
