- Description
The ESA astronaut Paolo Nespoli is aboard the International Space Station since last December.
He is busy with research and maintenance, welcoming visiting spacecraft and helping to finish the Space Station's construction, but he has also time for several educational activities. This story shows what Paolo is doing to inspire young people from Space with Mission X and Greenhouse in Space projects.
Astronauts are good role models for promoting healthy eating and regular exercise and Space Station is an interesting environment for growing lettuce - with an unexpected surprise.
