A few years ago, Tom Cruise announced that he and SpaceX are teaming up to film a movie in space. We've now learned that Space Entertainment Enterprise over in the UK has contracted a company called Axiom to build and attach a studio to the International Space Station. The module will be called SEE-1, and they say it would be “the world’s first content and entertainment studios and multipurpose arena in space.”
The plan is to launch SEE-1 in 2024, and attach it to the space station.
When NASA astronaut Victor Glover heard about the filming of the movie, he warned Tom Cruise about the foul smell permeating the International Space Station.
He said, “When you first get to space station is when you notice the smell the strongest because you kind of get saturated and you get used to it after.”
He continues, “When you go into the module that has the lifting, the strength training equipment, that’s also where the bathroom is. So, that’s the most odoriferous module.” He said, "that one smells like a locker room." Maybe they need a maid? Is Rosie the Robot available?
