NASA Releases Video Tour of the ISS

Malvineous writes "Expedition 18 Commander Mike Fincke has recently filmed a high-definition 35-minute video tour aboard the International Space Station. For those who missed the HD broadcast on NASA TV, the video is available on YouTube. Due to YouTube length limits, the tour is split into four separate videos. Here are Part 2, Part 3, and Part 4."

    too bad they can't drink beer. in microgravity the solid liquid contents of the stomach aren't really at the bottom but all mixed up with the gases and when the inevitable burp comes after a bubbly drink, instead of the just the gas, all the mixed stuff comes up too, turning a burp into a vomit

    Does any sat or cable co have NASA TV HD? or do they not have it as it is very part time and then nasa should make it 24/7 HD.

    NASA does not have a 24-7 HD channel that cable/DBS companies could distribute. They (NASA) just put it up on-demand, like for this feed. During the last shuttle mission they had it up for the whole 3 weeks of countdown, mission and landing, and I expect that will continue (next launch is Feb 12th). I'm tracking the status of NASA TV HD here on a nasaspaceflight.com forum. I link here to a specific comment that answers some FAQs, but you should read through the whole thread to get the whole picture.
