Astronauts took the Soyuz for a fun little fly around the ISS
Nov 02, 4:59AM
In a planned mission, three ISS crew members took their Soyuz out for a ride around the ISS. Why? Did they want to show Sandra Bullock's character in Gravity how it's really done? Not exactly.

And the ISS as your apartment. And oh yeah, space.

What you need is this lovely purpose-built nutcracker from Normann Copenhagen, featuring a thick silicone handle so you don't destroy your hands in the process.
