It’s a Christmas to say the least that astronauts on mission on the International Space Station (ISS) experience. Also, on this occasion, Nasa decided to share a video in which Expedition 64 astronauts Mike Hopkins, Victor Glover, Shannon Walker, Kate Rubins and Soichi Noguchi share their thoughts on spending that time in space, away from family and friends.
Soichi Noguchi thus presents the gift received from Japanese students. It is a small metal tin of food, which the astronaut then lets fly in the air.
The astronauts also show their achievement as part of a decoration competition. They thus created, with elements found in space, an Advent wreath that can be seen behind them. They therefore suggested that the employees of the control mission in Houston also create a decoration with the only elements found in building 30.
