ESA Astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti Shows Where the Crew Sleeps on the International Space Station

ESA astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti shows where astronauts sleep on the International Space Station (ISS).

After a day’s work running experiments and maintaining the weightless research centre astronauts can retreat to their private quarters that is no larger than a changing room. In this small space they can store personal items, use a laptop for internet and float to sleep in their sleeping bag.
