In her final days as Commander of the International Space Station, Sunita Williams of NASA recorded an extensive tour of the orbital laboratory and downlinked the video on Nov. 18, just hours before she, cosmonaut Yuri Malenchenko and Flight Engineer Aki Hoshide of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency departed in their Soyuz TMA-05M spacecraft for a landing on the steppe of Kazakhstan. The tour includes scenes of each of the station's modules and research facilities with a running narrative by Williams of the work that has taken place and which is ongoing aboard the orbital outpost.

I met her and another astronaut eating at our restaurant the other day and shook their hands. I was so starstruck.

This is awesome and terrifying at the same time

I was going to show my 5 year and twin 4 year old daughters 3 minutes of this. They were GLUED! At about 10 minutes I offered to turn it off and watch the rest later, and two of my girls shouted, "NO!" It was VERY cool - both the video and their reactions.

This is one of the greatest videos I've ever seen. They are all so lucky to be able to experience that

I love how even though she's been there for 6 months she still enjoys flying around in the space station! Just goes to show the novelty doesn't wear off any time soon.

AWESOME!! Thanks Sunita Williams for sharing that with us. The views out the windows put everything in perspective for us. My 12 year old son Jake and I enjoyed watching your video and glad you returned safely.

It's amazing what we accomplish when we (countries, cultures) partner with each other instead of argue and fight and kill each other. Freakin' space!

Amazing! The view from the cupola is just overwhelming.

Great tour! Felt like I was there - that she was really talking to ME! I loved how she seemed like a mermaid swimming through one of those little castles they put in fishtanks - and like Alice floating down the rabbit hole. And how she talked about finding her bearings on the earth by types of clouds. Very cool! Sunny, you rock!!!

Thanks for making this video! It shows how well different countries can work together and what we are able to achieve when we work together.

Thanks for giving us a realistic look at the inside of the ISS. Great job to all of you serving in this capacity!

Wow! For a claustrophobic person like me, it's just way too confined.
