The folks at NASA TV released a nice video tour of the International Space Station.

If you like spaceships, this is pretty freakin cool stuff :)
It also gives a good perspective on living in zero gravity. I still can't figure out how they sleep!

The link is to the first video, there are 4 of them, the other 3 will be in the ralated videos section...

And wow what a view!

Finally got a chance to start watching this. Fascinating! I can't even begin to imagine what it must be like to be up there... But the views - wow.

While it is a lot larger than our boats, it is very much a small craft that goes looong distance (even if in circles... :) ).

Umm, technically, that's long distances in ellipses

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.  -Mark Twain

No, not always - some orbits they are out in the sunlight full time.
