  4. How do astronauts relax in space? • When astronauts do have time to relax, they often spend it connecting with people on Earth or enjoying familiar Earth pastimes. Astronauts can communicate with their families and friends by email, internet phone and Ham radio. Crewmembers living on the ISS can also keep in touch with their families every weekend through private videoconferences.

  5. Do Astronauts sleep in beds ?if not how do they sleep? • Most astronauts use restraints to secure their limbs to their sleeping equipment or fold their arms across their chest to prevent them from floating above their heads. While it is not painful to have your arms float freely, many astronauts find this unsettling. Other astronauts, including Canada's first astronaut Marc Garneau, preferred to sleep "free floating." He would simply curl up in the corner and doze off.
