Living in Space

 


Have you ever imagined living in space? Waking up everyday to a dark, flickery sky and going to bed strapped on a wall? How about waking up and finding the moon under your feet or eating from a tube? You would think this would be fun or boring? Living in space is very different from what you think it is and I bet when you read this you wouldn't believe it! You will read about astronauts and their daily routine of living in space. Space clothes are very different from our clothes. For example when in space, they stick their worn out clothes in a bag for disposal so when you come down to Earth your clothes will burn up with other garbage. When you first start the astronaut job you get pants and/or shorts, t-shirts, socks, and sweaters. You can also choose from Russian or USA clothing. Working in space is exciting and hard work. You would work on science experiments and you would have to monitor those you are on the ground. You would work on medical experiments that ensures maintenance and health. You would constantly check support systems, cleaning filters, and hardware. You would also send messages to people down on Earth to check and update them. Sleeping in space is very different. You would be able to sleep in any orientation, but would have to get strapped on a wall, seat, or bunk bed. You would also be in a sleeping bag. Odds are you would wake up with your arms in the air! Hygiene in space is not so different. Well if you count using rinse-less shampoo as normal. Your hygiene kit would be stuck to the wall and you would have to share a small mirror with another. Your toilet acts like a vacuum and sucks up all your remaining s. There are some similarities though. For instance you would brush your teeth regularly and shave regularly as well. Food in space is the same as hygiene. There are some similarities and differences. Some of your food can be eaten in your natural form and there is a stove, but no refrigerator. Your salt and pepper are in liquid, but you have mayo, ketchup, and mustard. You would have three meals a day containing vitamins and minerals and a certain amount of calories. Lastly your living quarters. We went through all the important stuff and now you are ready for space, but you must no the living quarters. There are two small crew cabins, big enough for one person each. When you wake up the mission control system sends music. There is a living space, sleeping space, and living room. You would also get e-mailed once a day for new missions. So good luck and thanks for reading!
