A Ride in the International Space Station (I.S.S.)
This is one of the coolest videos I've seen in a while. You really feel like you're there!! This link will take you to the International Space Station, and a "25-minute personal tour" by Sunita Williams. She shows how big this place really is, and explains how all aspects of human needs are handled .
