Astronaut shows students how they drink liquids in space

Students from Sunita L Williams Elementary School in Needham, Massachusetts were given the opportunity to virtually speak to Nasa astronaut Sunita Williams.

One student asked if it was difficult to drink from space, prompting Williams to demonstrate how they do it.

Williams and Barry “Butch” Wilmore have hit the six-month mark in space after becoming the first to ride Boeing’s new Starliner capsule on what was supposed to be a week-long test flight. Their return was delayed until February because of issues with the space capsule.
