The Space Station is a major project being undertaken in the United States that will provide major advances in the development and implementation of observations from space. In particular, the Space Station Manned Base (SSMB) and the attendant attached payload capability offers an opportunity for testing new observing concepts and observing hydrological phenomena in the low latitudes. Ample power, thermal, data, serviceability and other support services are being designed in Phase 1 of the SSMB. It is concluded that the hydrological community should study the SSMB and utilize the opportunity to advance the utility of space observations for studies of the hydrological cycle.
