It is a nice a cozy feeling. As you may know, the station makes an complete orbit every 90 minutes, so when I talk about night don’t think of it as night on Earth when it is dark outside. The sun rises and sets during each orbit and you can watch 32 beautiful sunrises and sunsets over the course of the day.

    This is the first time Ive ever had the feeling in my belly that I wished I was someone else. Ive always wanted to live at the international space station. Id give up my personal space, family and friends for 6 months and eat canned food every day (even the meat stuffs) and pee in a tube and have permanent water-retantion without a second thought to have that experience.

    I wonder if it will ever become an affordable reality within our lifetimes to go to space, and I dont just mean for a short flight but a long stay. And I really want to do it in zero-gravity. Dont book me a ticket to some space resort!

    I hope it happens while I’m still young.
