Answering Age-Old Questions
By the way, anybody want a tour of the International Space Station? Because here's one now! I missed this when it first came out, but it's worth a watch.
I love watching the astronauts just casually floating around in freefall like it's the only way they've ever moved. Must be weird to have to get used to gravity again when they get home. And it must be REALLY strange to get used to not lying down when you sleep upon first arrival there. I wonder how long it takes to convince your body that it's okay to fall asleep.
Also, I would love to visit the ISS except for that constant background noise. I have enough trouble with airplanes, for crying out loud. I would go crazy in under 3 minutes having to listen to that.
