Thanksgiving 2015 on the International Space Station

NASA astronauts Scott Kelly and Kjell Lindgren took time to share their plans for Thanksgiving this year aboard the International Space Station. The two NASA astronauts sent well wishes to those on the ground and showed off their Thanksgiving meal of smoked turkey, candied yams, corn and potatoes au gratin.

Happy Thanksgiving!! This is absolutely spectacular.

[@bongsai]

Cracks me up every time kelly goes for the candied yams hahaha

[@BeccaP007]

This was fun to watch :) stay safe up there guys!

[@stuartmcdermott168]

+Rebecca P They will be ok, if all goes wrong they only have about 3 feet to fall. And then a friendly freemason will probably be walking by to pick them up dust them off and help them back onto the stage. :-)

This is awesome 🇺🇸👑💕

[@Mrsadfaced301]

I hope to see the day when we actually get to places beyond our universe. If you think we are the only ones, Then you are wrong for that. God bless the Earth and all those who share it.

+aserta Solar System, Mr. President, just sayin' There's a lot to do before leaving the galaxy... The next closest galaxy is millions of times farther than the next closest solar system.

#spacetoGround Question: In the ISS is there any one item or equipment that has become obsolete now since the beginning of the ISS?

[@tecnockicken57]

I second this question.

[@TheReallyNiceGuy11]

Upgrades are cheating. I was thinking more of something that has become totally useless?? And what was first? Maybe a comb? (lol)

[@TheReallyNiceGuy11]

Maybe Batteries??

[@bmetal2]

extremely cool!

How was Kelly going to watch the Thanksgiving football game in 2015 on the ISS and the big news today 08/02/2016, is astronauts watching the Superbowl? The ISS even threw a Superbowl party to commemorate the joyous occasion.

[@FahmiiYusof]

did NASA pack these guys some raw potatoes??

[@SuperSMT]

+Fahmii Yusof - If not, they _better_ remember for the first trip to Mars...

[@horselover25collachi23]

+SuperSMT have you seen the Martian!! I've seen it 3 times!!!

[@horselover25collachi23]

have you also seen the Martian? like the last comment I said, I've seen it 3 times!!

[@mohdazrin7627]

Happy cristmas

[@mohdazrin7627]

Happy new year2020 cristmas

[@tylerschamehorn1115]

I wonder if, when they spin, they feel like they are staying put and everything else is moving around them?

[@28mayhem]

I don't think they would. Even though they are in zero G, they are still getting the Gs from acceleration/deceleration. (or in that case, zentripetal force) That's what usually gives you a sense of your orientation.

[@katherinemurza53]

is their icecream up there?

[@othellopacheco799]

why no one ever asks what happens if he sneezes??? with the boogers flying everywhere? how do you stop a astronaut from sneezing in space

[@Lee-Leee]

i love this the dude starts laughing and I couldn't help but laugh along. poor guys thanksgiving meal was kinda sad but their spirit will undoubtedly pull them through ✌

[@othellopacheco799]

also if you pass gas out of space?? with no atmosphere where do the gas go

[@NoahTewolde24]

Lmao it stays there.

[@YuryRiabokon]

Yes, you can see wise video in there: ok.ru/video/62871987642455-0

[@juanagil2750]

👍🏼

[@NeonRedChannel]

what does it smell like inside the ISS?

[@1_GigaWaffle]

+NeoRoDu usualy it's neutral because of all the air filtering systems. they answered that somewhere...

[@AlpineMusicSchool]

+NeoRoDu Recycled farts.

[@abdallamohamed218]

[@schlaznger8049]

No they just eat the marijuana in space.

Hey scotty boy..why did you take down the comments section of your oh so fantastic Space Station Commander gives Insight Into Life in Space video? Do you not like the fact that people have woken up to your rubbish con?

[@slyfoxie55]

Stuart McDermott He doesn't do anything it's his annoying partner Amiko.

Hi พี่รอง th 14/11/202¹ Asm 04,55 o'çĺock

[@user-ng7mj3xh1r]

First

[@stuartmcdermott168]

Do a back flip and and take your t-shirts off...Make us laugh at you more than we already are....That was the most ridiculous thanks giving speech i have ever heard, in fact it's the first, I'm from the uk.

[@onefeather2]

It would be awesome to experience being there where there is no hate and violence and people fighting. Blessings to them. I hope we never live on any planet because humans cause nothing but problems.

[@hydronorcord]

To bad the administration of both country's cannot get along and work together like the ISS staff.

[@othellopacheco799]

Evilpreacher how do they contain the sewage smell

[@hellgnome00100]

what if someone would like to smoke ? would he be able ?

[@oninoni]

No

[@marranin007]

no, probably smoke would stay there and contaminate the air, making it toxic to breath and people would die

[@rahulkochar5577]

Happy thanksgiving guys! this is my third thanksgiving while following astronauts on board the iss :)
