Don't know if you've seen this. It's a tour of the space station.

(For the uninterested in space or impatient the cycling bit is at 3.25 minutes)

    great find, what an interesting half hour, she presents it very well, tho how must they be longing to get back to green fields and the smells of earth?

    Thanks for posting that.

    Zero G hair styles are a bit mad

    I can't imagine trying to ride that bike with no gravity, no seat, and nothing to hold the bike still!

    It looks like it'd be fun to be in zero gravity for a couple of hours to muck about, but watching the video and imagining spending 6 months on there made me want to start hyperventilating. I'm a little bit claustrophobic, but usually only in spaces that are confined enough to restrict my movement. I'm absolutely fine in lifts etc, but felt quite anxious when I went into a disused lead mine at a museum once!

    Do you need to wear a helmet when riding with 'zero' G?

    Cabin fever within 5 mins of watching that. Reminds me a little of this:

    Because this might happen

    ..and you'll end up having to do this

    two thoughts that came to me....

    1. It was odd to see her wearing ordinary clothes instead of some sort of suit.

    2. If it does that to her hair, what do zero-G tits look like?


    The older I get, the better I was.
