I’m surprised they could even pretzel 4 women in there... I am kind of surprised we had 4 women up there at the same time too.

They should have made it a tad bigger, IMO

What’s not to like?

She’s sipping an Espresso with the beautiful blue earth above here, watches sunrise and sunset ever 1 1/2 hours.

Only thing better would be a glass of Tuscan Chianti before a nice Zero-G nap!

Who wouldn’t like the cupola? That’s the best viewing spot save for being outside on an EVA that they can have on board the ISS. If I went there, that’s where I’d spend the majority of time. The view would be FANTASTIC!

You can smoke, you just have to stand outside the spaceship door?

No, it's worse than that... you go outside and it's colder than a witch's tit, your eardrums and eyeballs feel like they are going to burst, and your blood start to boil... then you see the icing on the cake... the sign they put up on the outside the space station next to the hatch...

Going clockwise from the top we have Tracy Caldwell-Dyson,
Naoko Yamakazi, Dottie Metcalf-lindenber, and Stephanie Wilson. A record for women in space at one time.

I hope the Lavaza espresso machine works out better than the Wolowitz toilet.

But with the new Kerbal Space Program, we can try to surpass that.

Italians had to send a woman to space, otherwise the laundry & cooking wouldn’t have gotten done. Mama mia!

After 6 months in space she's gonna be hornier than all get out........And pumped up on Espresso? OMG!
