Lovely that we can even have such films.

Isn't it just. Incredible what we can do. Also that those astronauts on spacewalks are just a few layers of cloth and a piece of perspex away from being in the vacuum of space 😳

I was thinking that they would be cold, but I presume in the sun they would be getting more heat than we do on earth despite "being in the vacuum of space".

Kind of both. The lunar command module was set on a slow rotate to stop one side cooking and the other freezing, essentially.

Now that is a room with a view. I'm guessing that big red bit is Australia. I flew over it once (Sydney to Perth) without landing and just recall there was a tiny strip of green around the the SE followed by hours and hours of red outback.

I'm not sure how much I would get done if that was my view from the office. Earth looks so peaceful and beguiling from there.
