A guided tour of the International Space Station

The European Space Agency has added a “street view” of the space station to their website.

The astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti, who had spent an amazing 199 days on the ISS, took 15 panorama pictures of the inside of every space module before she returned to earth. The ESA put these pictures together, making an interactive tour of the space station, with embedded videos of astronauts explaining different items in the different modules. The different sections are accessible by clicking on the module hatches.

The interactive map is entertaining and well made. If you are wondering, they show all parts of the space station, and yes, even the toilets.
