Much work to do. We’re exhausted.
The Space Shuttle has arrived, and we switched time at the station. It is done at the beginning of each Shuttle mission to make things easier for Houston mission control. This resulted in us getting to bed much earlier. I was tossing and turning and managed to fall asleep only at 4 O’clock in the morning. And we woke up at 12:30pm Moscow time.
Our Fortis space watch points to 12 when it’s 3pm in Moscow.
I decided to “play with time” a little.
Here is Fortis-salad. :) It just grew like this!
Notice a Soyuz patch on my sleeve? Nastya Mestyashkova (the 14-year-old painter who designed the Soyuz TMA-16 mission logo; of which Max was mission commander – ed.) if you read this, hello from orbit to you! See, your work really is in space!
Time is relative. As I finish work and call my wife, she is putting our daughters to bed.
