Terror on the Space Station: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

Terror on the Space Station is a gripping exploration of life aboard the most dangerous construction site in human history. Hurtling around Earth at 17,000mph, the International Space Station is protected only by thin metal walls, shielding astronauts from the most hostile environment humans have ever endured.

In this high-stakes documentary, international astronauts, along with mission controllers, recount the ISS's most terrifying moments - from toxic gas leaks and meteor strikes to spacewalk crises, faulty spacesuits, docking disasters, rogue satellites, and the heart-stopping incident when the entire station spun wildly out of control. These are stories of survival, split-second decisions, and the brilliance that kept them alive 250 miles above Earth.
