02/01/2013 10:34 AM

A friend sent this link to me...it's about 25 minutes but worth a watch.

That was great. I can't imagine spending months in such a cramped area!

That was a very well done and interesting video. I showed it to my wife and after five minutes of watching, she said, "I'm claustrophobic; if that thing ever comes to our home town, don't invite me for a tour." Enough said.

Thanks Tom. It was eye opening if just to see the cramped space they work and live. It seems we have long way to go to develop interplanetary travel.

Superb video! Thanks to Sunita for the tour and thanks to Tom for the link. The space inside the ISS is actually much larger than "I" thought it was.
