In space, Tito will be sustained by Russian soups, juice, tea and coffee, all in toothpaste like tubes/fruit and ready cooked vegetables as well as canned meats. 'I do miss a good hamburger,' he said.
NASA is trying out virtual reality as a way of speeding up astronauts' training and making tasks more efficient. With less training time, the astronauts will have more time to devote to other activities on board the station.

However, before we can do so, all the modern myths about work will have to be exposed: the ones that continue to stereotype work as intrinsically sapping, demeaning, and corrosive. It is time to give work a break.
As every dad knows, fatherhood isn’t all fun and games. Still, dads will find various ways to connect with their sons and daughters. A common theme from dads is a desire to mortify their kids.

A recent study reported that toddlers will hide their knowledge of a solution around untrained peers, suggesting that the human desire to conform is inborn or at least develops at a very young age.

Now, the special conditions that made mummification possible are giving scientists a chance to explain how the universe acquired the solidity that made life possible in the first place. It will be a key scientific milestone.
Chajnantor's receivers will be built specifically to collect this precious microwave radiation and help astronomers understand one of science's last major cosmological mysteries: the structured, solid nature of the cosmos.
The construction of 64 such telescopes on a vast, adjustable grid of tracks covering 40 square km is daunting. The combined collecting surface of the receivers will measure 6.000 square metres, the size of a football pitch.
To vary the angle of the dish, it will be mounted on an elevation structure, beneath which will be a rotating structure. This will move smoothly around on the steel base, the cylindrical platform for the receiver.
The dish will direct the radio waves down into the heart of the receiver, where signals from deep space can be amplified, recorded and analysed. To compensate for the rotation of the Earth, it will need to be fully steerable.
Each Alma receiver will consist of a transportable structure supporting a dish measuring 10 metres in diameter. Extending outwards from the smooth metal surface of the dish will be 3 support arms that hold a sub-reflector.
When completed, these machines will allow the world's astronomers to view the birth of thousands of planetary systems in the deepest recesses of our galaxy.
