    What do astronauts dream of? How do they feel while they float above the clouds? In 1991 Helen Sharman became the first Briton in space; in this animation, hand-drawn by Ri animator-in-residence Andrew Khosravani, Sharman shares a dream she often has about returning to space, and talks about what it’s like to gaze down on the earth from above.

    People on Earth have dreams of being up in space. People in space have dreams of being back on Earth. This would be especially true in cases of extremely long space voyages. I think what is exciting about space travel is not the act of being in space in and of itself, but about the destinations that our species will eventually reach, and what we will discover there.

    Beautiful video, I can't wait for the rest of the series in this year's calendar. I wonder, do astronauts dream of weightless sheep?
