ايران از ISS
سفر انوشه انصاری تا ۴۸ ساعت ديگر به پايان خواهد رسيد و روز ۳۰ سپتمبر به زمين بر خواهد گشت. اينبار وی از احساس خود در فضا و نکات جالب ديگری در وبلاگ spaceblog.xprize.org نوشته است. از جمله ديدن روزانه ۳۲ بار طلوع و غروب خورشيد - آرزويش مبني بر اينکه ايکاش رهبران مليتهای مختلف تصوير دنيا را قبل از تصوير کشورشان می ديدند - همچنين از حال و هوای دوران کودکيش در ايران و تشبيه پنبه زنی و تصاوير ابرهايی را که از فضا می بيند - آرزوی خوردن سيبی بعد از ماهها استفاده از غذای کنسروی - و نيز با صداقت فکر می کند فضانوردان به جهت داشتن دور نمای فوق العاده رهبران بزرگی خواهند بود و بايد در انتخابات رياست جمهوری شرکت نمايند.

Anousheh’s trip to the ISS took about two days from launch to docking, but the return to Earth takes only less than 3.5 hours - more
The reality is that we are both rotating in the same direction but the space station is going about 20 times faster than Earth so it makes it feel like the Earth is rotating in the opposite direction… Ok enough of that… I guess your head must be spinning now
I wish the leaders of different nations could do the same and have a world vision first, before a specific vision for their country
For the Iranians out there, it reminds me of when I was very young in Iran and we had “Panbeh Zan.” They would come every once in a while and take the cotton-filled blankets (Lahaf) and take the cotton out and fluff it with this ancient device that looks like a big bow (Oh! Oh! I’m dating myself ) In some regions the clouds look like streaks… like someone took a paint brush and white paint and just stroked the paintbrush in different directions…
You can spend hours just watching outside… but after about 45 minutes, the sky starts to get dark as the sun sets behind the Earth and creates this amazing hue of Orange mixed with the prettiest Blue… and then the night time comes. You cannot see the Earth that well unless you’re going over cities. Only then you will see these blotches of orange hue spread around. Large cities, of course, are more visible
As I gaze out I thank God once again for helping me be here and experience this. I have been thanking him for letting my inner voice carry out to you all and ask him to give me the vision to see my path in life and the strength to pursue it
It is a nice a cozy feeling. As you may know, the station makes an complete orbit every 90 minutes, so when I talk about night don’t think of it as night on Earth when it is dark outside. The sun rises and sets during each orbit and you can watch 32 beautiful sunrises and sunsets over the course of the day
.... You can imagine how good a fresh apple could be after several month of canned food
Visiting space for a short while is one thing but staying on for half a year is another… You are a long way from your family and friends, and except for emails and short duration phone calls, you don’t have anyone else to talk to except your other crewmates. Right now the long duration crew is a combination of three astronauts or cosmonauts, but pretty soon the ISS Partner countries are planning to increase that to a crew of six
Everyone I met in Star City and up here can be called superhumans… I honestly think we should get astronauts to run for presidency… they are great leaders with a unique perspective on the World
