The International Space Station is a research facility and space station located over Earth currently being assembled in outer space. In 2004, after the Battle of Antarctica, a Russian team was aboard the station adjusting its orbit to avoid some debris left over from the remnants of Anubis' fleet. Aboard the station, Anubis' consciousness commandeered the body of Anatole Konstantinov in order to return to Earth and leave though the Stargate. (SG1: "Lockdown")
