I was really rather impressed by this so thought I'd post it up. It's twenty five mins long but it's riveting and very entertaining. Hope you all enjoy it. :)

You are right. That is really good to watch, especially the movements and hair in zero gravity. Will finish watching it later.


 


It reminded me of an IMAX 3D film about the station I saw a few years ago, I think it was at the Science Museum.


 


Thanks for posting that Kim.

Make sure you do Pete - what fascinated me was all the different sections and their purposes. It'll make me think a bit more about what's actually going over on the next pass I see. :)

Amazing. Fascinating to watch, thanks for posting the link.


 


What are all those pipes which look like the pipe at the back of my tumble dryer?


 


Also, the Russian side was very messy compared to the American, I wasn't sure if the corridor betyween the Russian and American sides was deliberately messy to stop the Americans from visiting.


 


It seems like the jetison the 'trash' on their descent. I just hope all that 'crap' burns up well before it gets anywhere near terra firm :)

Yup - that's what she said about the trash - get's burned up on the way down. My missus would have a fit with all the stuff all over the place - she'd want to start clearing it all away lol.


 


Glad you enjoyed it James :)
