       | Cool stuff - the porthole in each bunk compartment is a nice
       | touch. The overall tone feels like it must have been meant for
       | schoolkids, it's just slightly too cute (which is endearing, but
       | maybe not in the way it was intended to be).

       | Chinese food culture is very tied to geography in my experience.
       | Mentioning where the astronauts were from was a charming touch.

       | I am surprised by how different it looks from the ISS. By
       | comparison, the Chinese space station looks much cleaner, with a
       | strong sense of up and down. When you look at the ISS, it is
       | clear that it is out of this world, here, it looks like a
       | research station that could have been on Earth.

         | I was hoping they would show their toilet!

         | It looks like a research station that was designed to be
         | _maintained_ on Earth. Their sense of cleanliness, I feel, is
         | going to cost them in labor and repairability in the long run.

         | So many integrated panels. A microwave? Plants out in the work
         | area with no shielding and nothing to constrain waste from
         | floating away?
         | 
         | Pretty cowboy lookin' up there.
