【Chris Cassidy Archives】

A soothing new 18-minute video from NASA lets you float through the nooks and Chris Cassidy Archivescrannies of the International Space Station in ultra high definition.

The fly-through starts in the station's cupola, a set of huge windows that let astronauts and cosmonauts look down on Earth from above.

From there, the video moves on to show the various international modules that make up the station's living space, which is equivalent to that of a five bedroom house.

Occasionally, a diagram will pop up on screen to show you exactly where the camera is at any given moment on the station, and a text box in the left corner gives you information about that area of the orbiting outpost. But if you aren't interested in learning more about the station itself, just sit back, relax and enjoy the high-def view from space.

However, the Space Station is missing one key things in this video: people. The huge space laboratory has been continuously occupied by crews of astronauts and cosmonauts since 2000.

In the video, you can see signs of the lives the crewmembers live, if not the crewmembers themselves.

The camera pans over computers used by the astronauts and cosmonauts, spacesuits they wear during spacewalks outside the station and a table set with food about 2 minutes and 40 seconds in.

At the moment, there are six people living and working on the Space Station, at least until this weekend. On Saturday, NASA astronaut Kate Rubins, Japanese astronaut Takuya Onishi and Russian cosmonaut Anatoly Ivanishin will leave the station and land back on Earth after an approximately six-month mission.

NASA's Shane Kimbrough and cosmonauts Sergey Ryzhikov and Andrey Borisenko arrived on the station on Oct. 21 and will remain there until their mission ends in about six months.
