@GiftedPrude The ISS measures 357 feet (108 meters) from end-to-end, comparable to the size of an American football field. 🛰️ The ISS has 7 permanent spots for astronauts to sleep, but can manage to have crews as large as this one (11) temporarily.

@TimothyFriar The @space_station has 7 permanent astronaut spots to sleep known as “crew quarters.” During the four-day hand-off, the astronauts will work with flight controllers on the ground and use temporary “camp-out” locations in different modules. 💤 — PolitiTweet.org
