1. How would you like to live three hundred and sixty kilometers above the Earth, flying at almost thirty thousand kilometers an hour through dark, airless space? Well, that’s exactly how the astronauts working on the giant international Space Station (ISS) live. “ Cool!” you might say. Well… maybe. Let’s take a look at what it’s really like to live in space

2. Living in zero gravity means doing lots of things differently. First of all, you can forget about having a nice hot shower in the morning, as the water droplets would simply float away. Astronauts have to use a vacuum hose to wash with. Also, when muscles don’t have to work against gravity as they do here on Earth, they go soft. So the residents of the ISS actually spend 2 hours a day working out on exercise bikes and rowing machines.

3. There’s no escape from household chores on the ISS. As dangerous bacteria grow quickly in zero gravity, the astronauts clean the whole station every day, which is about the size of a football pithc! Also the lack of gravity makes the simplest things in live seem quite weird! Take eating for example, to stope their meals floating away, astronauts have to “post” food packages into a special tray and then strap the tray to their legs. At least there’s no washing up to do, though. The astronauts simply put their dirty dishes and rubbish into plastic bags and send them back to Earth.
