Have you ever wanted a “personalized” tour of the International Space Station? Well, now you can! NASA has released a more in-depth tour of the International Space Station by astronaut Mike Finke. The tour consists of four ten minute videos that show you every part of the International space station. Everywhere from the Soyuz capsule to the personal crew quarers and even the lavs are toured. This tour is very up-to-date and very interesting. What I find extremely interesting is that all four sides of each module is used for something since there is no up and down in space. stuff is stored in the sides and even the ceiling and floors. Also, what I found very interesting is how small the soyuz capsule really is.

Nice Landing!

Like I always say, there is no such thing as a safe water landing. However, kudos to Captain Chesley B. “Sully” Sullenberger, III and his first officer for proving me wrong!!!

The video is not my work, but the work of the people at MSNBC *Please don’t sue me!*
