Part 6: A Day In The Life Onboard The ISS

This is a wonderful visit inside the International Space Station. Astronaut Garrett Reisman, Expedition 17 flight engineer, films parts of his day May 7th 2008. Ride along as Reisman narrates the sights and sounds of a "typical" day at 17,500 mph 225 miles above the Earth. Our thanks to Garrett for the video, nicely done, and to NASA for making it all possible.

See Dr. Reisman on The Colbert Report

This is awesome! Very interesting, and the astronaut does a great job narrating...funny and informative. Also it's kind of funny how they have the music piped throughout the station, just like a real office, except in orbit...lol

"Whoo-hoo...but I do have a cookie!"

Seriously, I love this guy. Nasa is lucky to have such a go-lucky guy and positive attitude. He's pretty damn funny and a hoot to watch!! Go Garrett!

@justinRkeaton The ISS is actually falling toward the center of the earth,but in the same time moving around it very fast,maintaining an orbit.

I would complain about 240p but it looks pretty good in space ;)

Having a parrot rc drone on the iss would be AMAZING

I wonder how when you swallow, if it is harder because of the microgravity?

Im doing a presentation on space flight and its effects on the human body.

This whole segment is awesome! I thought it was really interesting how Garrett said in Part 1 that you grow in space! I had no idea!

It is my new goal to someday be able to experience a day in microgravity! Soooo legit!

He SERIOUSLY needs his own show somehow.  Like a live stream, or something on discovery....ANYTHING! He's awesome.

@TheKnownPower Busy operating the laser cannons, obviously.

@adrianfi7 If you're going to gripe about people of the world being robbed blind how about targeting the endless wars around the world that waste trillions while destroying humanity rather than this shining example of people of the world working together to continually push the horizons of our perceptions and understanding.
