You really have to watch this video about a tour of the ISS by astronaut Sunita Williams:

Really amazing! However, I have to admit it was quite claustrophobic...

I found it very exciting!
Yes, it is lacking space for movement or sleep, and the "toilet" is risky but wow! Very clear the way she shows and explains everything. A nice tour, thanks! :thumbsup:

You know what they say about a place to live - location, location, location!

Great view if you do not mind the long hours, radiation and bone loss.

Nice lady - nice tour. I guess if you have long hair - every day is a bad hair day. :twistedlaugh: I must admit the station is more of a mess than I would have thought. There is just stuff EVERYWHERE and like she said, no real floor.

As you all see, we still have a long way to go from the ISS to Starbase 1, Spacedock or DS9. But at least, it's a first step :grin:
