The International Space Station (ISS), which lies over 400 kilometers above Earth, completes an orbit around the planet every 90 minutes. As a result, the crew members get to see multiple sunsets and sunrises every day, 16 to be precise. The ISS follows Universal Coordinated Time aka Greenwich Mean Time. Hence, the onboard astronauts will celebrate New Year at 5.30 am IST on January 1, 2023.
