Merry Christmas from The Expedition 70 Crew! | International Space Station

Merry Christmas from FriendsofNASA.org! | Aboard the International Space Station, NASA astronauts Jasmin Moghbeli and Loral O’Hara along with European Space Agency (ESA) astronaut Andreas Mogensen of Denmark and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) astronaut Satoshi Furukawa celebrate the holidays.

Astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli: "While I especially miss my friends and family back home this time of year, I wouldn’t trade the unique memories I’m making with my space family. We have found little ways to make the holidays feel like the holidays up here. Later today, we will all share a holiday meal and decorate cookies together."
