ISS astronauts watch Gravity in space
- Published
Astronauts on the International Space Station have enjoyed a movie night - and watched space film Gravity.
The team have installed a new HD projector for viewing documents, video calling and watching films.
Gravity is a film about two astronauts who end up in trouble above the Earth.
Commander Scott Kelly posted a photo online, with the message: "Movie night in micro gravity aboard ISS".
The astronaut is spending a whole year in space, so Nasa can look at the effects on the mind and body.
Commander Kelly also revealed that the internet in space was very slow.
He wrote: "We have a slow internet connection. Worse than what dial-up was like."
Dial-up internet was popular before broadband and 3G internet were around - but downloads took a very long time so the astronauts are unlikely to be watching CBBC iPlayer.
