 90's Yoga Mat takes a trip up to the local space hotel to bring in the New Years. The art of celebrating in micro-gravity gives rise to inventive ways to store your alcohol. These edible champagne bubbles deliver the perfect sip of bubbly in style. No more drinking your celebratory drink from a plastic pouch. I'm not sure where her normal outfit went. At a guess all the batteries, lights, and home brewed electronic wizardry was flagged by station security as to dangerous to have loose on board. A standard station jump suit would never fit. Oh well nothing new for a Luvalope to be seen running around in public with barely a scrap of cloth on them. It was suppose to be ice cream and champagne, I guess room service was late with the orders of the special 2017 Ice Cream Sundays. |

Hahaha, that's actually a super clever way to have liquid in space. I like it a lot. I wonder when they celebrate new years in space? Do they have it based on the time directly below them? But they move... Maybe they just have a default time that they stick with anyways.

Apparently the ISS crew does it 15 to 16 times as they pass over the time zones that just happens to be hitting midnight for the new year. I myself would imagine the time of New Year's would be based on station time, which might be set to the time zone of the owning company headquarters or maybe just the time zone of the primary ground station they use to keep in contact below. If the station is high enough to be in geostationary orbit then maybe the station time be synced with the time zone of the ground it's constantly directly above.
