What is life like for astronauts on the International Space Station?

The life of astronauts on the ISS.

Are you wondering what life is like for astronauts up there on the International Space Station (ISS) where there is zero gravity. How they deal with everyday things, such as washing their hair and teeth, eating, how they sleep, etc. We have collected a bunch of entertaining and at the same time educational videos, which were sent to us 402 kilometers below the Earth by the astronauts themselves.

The life of astronauts on the International Space Station, which orbits the Earth at an average speed of just over 27 thousand km/h, is far from life as we know it down here. They do not apply there the laws of gravity, which means that even completely ordinary and everyday tasks can become a kind of project.

Learn how they sleep, eat, wash and where they go to the toilet. And as the astronauts themselves say, the absence of gravity does not present any special obstacles. Admittedly, they can only dream of a shower, which is why there are water guns and special hair shampoos that do not need to be rinsed off.
