For the first time in human history astronauts get to live and work in space for longer than 25 days. For the first time thousands of researchers, engineers and students get their science projects investigated in Earth's orbit.

How do human bodies adapt to the hostile space conditions? How can people eat and wash or spend their free time in space? How do their loved ones remember the missions?
