We see just how fragile and wonderful is this blue oasis is in space. As Tom Cruise tells us, "One day you might visit the space station. You could be planning a trip to another planet.

A behind-the-scenes video about the making of "Space Station. Each shot must be carefully choreographed and rehearsed so that the precious film is not wasted. Calculations are done so that just the right Sun angle is achieved while on orbit since the remotely-controlled canister does not waste a second of its 8-minute film load. Aboard the Space Shuttle or Space Station it is a little easier to be spontaneous, but that usually only comes after the needed shots are out of the way and they know that there is extra film.

A favorite shot in the film involves astronaut Susan Helms supposedly caught sleeping in her cubicle aboard the station. As she points out in the documentary, the Imax camera is a very loud contraption and "you can't sneak up behind someone and film them in Imax and not have them know because the sound is so obvious.

There are actually two films that give tours and commentary about the International Space Station. The first is a tour filmed by astronaut Ed Lu and was downlinked directly to Earth.

His audio commentary is sometimes broken up by bad communications links, but is still fascinating to hear as we learn the intimate details of the station. For myself, one fascinating question went unanswered when you could see a series of photographs taped above a bulkhead hatch that appeared to be famous explorers such as Roald Amundsen.

Unfortunately, there was never a close enough shot to tell for sure and no mention is made of who they are or why they are there.
