An astronaut at the International Space Station (ISS) has shared a video showing what life there looks like

In a 30-second video shared on Facebook, the astronaut was spotted standing in a strange position at the space station where there is no gravity.

In the video, Nick Hague, who is part of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)'s Expedition 72, explained what life feels like at the space station.

He said that when an astronaut returns to Earth after a space expedition, it feels very strange to start walking again.

There is no gravity in space, where everything floats in the air, including the humans at the space station.

For instance, Nick himself was seen floating upside down while he was talking with a microphone.

He said:

"You know, it does feel strange when we return to Earth. You know, things are familiar. You go back to your family, your friends and your loved ones. But the thing that feels strange is gravity because up here, you get used to being able to float around and be upside down like I'm right now. And then when I go back down to Earth, I have to feel all of that weight again. I have gotten so used to being lazy and floating up here."

Three other astronauts, including Sunita Williams, were listening. As he let go of the microphone, it floated freely to Sunita Williams, who grabbed it.
