If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be inside a pressurised metallic abode that floats in space, you’re in luck. NASA has released a high-definition video of the International Space Station, offering viewers a rare glimpse into what it’s really like to be inside.
The space lab houses an arsenal of scientific instruments in micro-gravity and crew members who work on experiments in numerous fields. The video was shot using a fisheye lens that includes brilliant focus and depth of field capabilities, enabling viewers to live their astronaut dreams briefly with a melancholic background score to boot.
You’ll feel like you’re a part of it all, floating inside, taking in the ISS cabins and equipment. The living space on ISS is comparable to a five-bedroom home and it weighs a whopping 450,000 kg.
There are more visual treats in the offing and expect to spot a glimpse of the view of our planet from inside the space station as the camera moves swiftly within the ISS.
