Today, we found out more about the International Space Station and explored the life astronauts have. We watched videos posted by Canadian astronaut, Chris Hadfield, who showed us how to do day to day things in space. We saw how to brush our teeth, sleep, rinse a towel and even how to be sick!

After this, we looked at astro-nappies and discovered that ‘fake snow’ is used in astro-nappies to absorb moisture. We dipped our fingers in and it was completely dry!

To end our mission, we got to taste astronaut puddings! There was mint choc chip and Neapolitan ice cream flavours. They were very dry but had a strong, good taste!

Year 5 over and out.
