International Space Station commander Chris Hadfield soaks a washcloth, gives it a twist, and...well, you'll see. -- Life in Space: Astronaut Chris Hadfield's Video Guide: goo.gl/fdgcgU
If you are wondering about the audience clapping, when this was recorded he was livestreaming to my school because a student won a contest to ask him a question and we got to Skype with him!
@@princessbeexxxx actually technically you're wrong. The ISS has about 90% of the gravity of Earth but since the ISS is falling toward Earth at the angle of Earth's curvature, the ISS orbits endlessly and creates a 'gravity-lees' field
There's something magical about watching everyday objects float in mid-air. It's one thing to read about weightlessness in a textbook, but quite another to have this whole new world in front of your eyes in HD
Thank you guys so much for making these videos. Since a little kid I've had this obsession with the idea of flight, which led to an obsession with zero gravity. I wanted to understand everything about it, not the big things but silly little things like this, and I still do. You guys have provided a way for all of us to feel like we have some experience of outer space, which is truly incredible.
People that say this is fake is either trying to lie for them self or believe their desperate the lies. You are in the line of all the people who are so ignorant and preoccupied with their life. They didn't understand there is something out there beyond earth. Yes you are among the minority of the kids.
.................. Suction. Urine is absorbed, filtered and recycled back to drinking water. Poop is freeze dried and packaged ready for a return trip back to earth (Currently a Soyuz).
Yeah. But, most of that stuff is mil-spec or better. Niceties like gas-tight double shrink on all electrical connections. And the 'nauts are careful not to release a lot. and they police their spills.
All of the drops are sucked into an " air conditioner " or it evaporates. Once it does that the water is cleansed and processed through a machine and it turns into regular drinking water.... And no, the wires won't be damaged anytime soon. :3
I've seen videos of people riding in planes that go really high and they do something extra so you can feel almost no gravity for like 30 second intervals. maybe you'd like it but it's probably very expensive.
0:28 No way! That is some neat space gear. If I am not mistaken, on the wall next to Chris's right elbow, that is a posi-semi-probaulary biometric confabulatroni inoinized epectromegtragopalabapala mustache trimmers. Definitely some very authentic doo-dads. When I was a kid I used to pretend I was in space too. Of course, Chris is really in space, what am I saying. Also, what is in the red bag? Is that a grabulotrobulatripometric pasquambulator? or is it a whoopee cushion for Hadfield's gratuitous space hilarity?
