WASHINGTON, Dec. 7 (UPI) -- NASA says it's celebrating the 10th anniversary of people continuously living aboard the International Space Station by offering a special 2010 calendar.

"The calendar contains unique images and highlights historic space exploration milestones and educational facts about the international laboratory," the space agency said. "Each month has its own theme and offers a glimpse into topics such as a typical day in the life of a crew member, the staff that supports the station and the massive dimensions of the orbiting research facility."

Nearly 100,000 copies of the calendar are being delivered to U.S. classrooms through NASA education programs and affiliated education networks.

The calendar is available for downloading at http://www.nasa.gov/station.
