Anyone Remodeling? The Space Station Is...


Money is tight. Contractors are looking for work. How far will they travel to get work? To the Space Station?

The International Space Station is set to get a facelift soon as astronauts prepare for an upcoming launch that will have them make improvements which will essentially double the crew capacity at the station. They will set in place a new water recovery system, a new fridge, set up extra sleeping compartments, add a work out machine capable of performing 30 exercises for crew members using it, and add a half bath. They will be setting up extra lap top stations, thermostats and most important...they are going "green". They will install an environmental system that is a closed loop - essentially recycling almost everything. Yes, if you were thinking what I was thinking...it will turn urine and condensation into drinking water.
If NASA wants to increase they crew size from 3 to 6 astronauts, these things must be done. And we are set to get them done in the next voyage, scheduled for later this week.

So wish them the best of luck and a safe return.

And thank you for making me Your Orange County Real Estate Connection.

Best regards.

  1. Hi ,

    It’s really good to know about this. Looks really interesting!!! It seems that home remodeling has become one of America's favorite pastimes. The housing market may be caught up in the current wide spread downturn, but .Orange County remodeling continues to move forward as many homeowners are opting to remodel instead of moving.

    Thanks.
