Cosmonaut Oleg Novitskiy's Instagram. Eating on the station is always a joyful occasion. Salt and spices here are in liquid form to avoid the grains getting in astronauts' eyes, though food can be let loose in zero gravity. The photograph shows a dinner, which the whole team is trying to attend.

Cosmonaut Sergey Volkov's Instagram. Cosmonauts post many images of earth landscapes from space. This is a photograph of Africa, although it could easily be the surface of Mars.

Earth seen through the ISS cupola. In the past, Soviet cosmonauts were taught to take photographs according to the principles used during the filming of 1969 movie, White Sun of the Desert. The tradition of watching this film before departing for space continues to this day.

Physical exercise for cosmonauts on the station is essential because living in zero gravity causes their muscles to atrophy. Before returning home, extra treadmill sessions are scheduled.

On Earth we see sunrises, but in space you can watch the Milky Way ascend.
