Oh, and by the way, here's a quick rundown on that floating astronaut prison you keep asking about:
The International Space Station (ISS) is not a prison but a research facility collaboratively built and operated by multiple space agencies - not just to put astronauts in, but to perform scientific research, test equipment for deep space missions, and observe the Earth! With ongoing support from space agencies and private companies, it continues to serve as a marvel of international cooperation in space exploration.
So go ahead, gaze at this floating research lab amid the city lights, and let your curiosity reach for the stars. Who knows what you might discover?
