# Talking to the Space Station!

   2 February 2016   [Class of 2017](https://www.rooseprimary.co.uk/blog/category/class-of-2017)

Years 4, 5 and 6 have had a very exciting afternoon as we have linked up with Tim Peake on the International Space Station!! He told us all about how to drink in space and how water sticks together. He also used paddles to play with the balls of water like table tennis. There was a lot of buffering and we lost signal once the station had passed over us but it was amazing to think that it was happening up in space while we were watching!
