I know this is your ten minutes in the tree house.

I thought you wanted it all to yourself.

- Yeah, I thought so too.

But once I actually saw the ISS, I really wanted you all to see it.

- Mm, yeah.

And when I had the place to myself, I really wanted to show you all my comic.

- And I haven'’t even gotten started on my Earth plant experiment, but when I do, for sure I'’m gonna want to talk to you about it, because I love talking about stuff.

- And I didn'’t even need to set up inside the tree house.

The view was best out here on the deck.

I guess I was being kind of selfish.

- You guys...this is just like the space station.

- What do you mean?

- Did you know that scientists from a lot of different countries share the space station?

- They do?

- Yes, they do.

The ISS is basically a laboratory orbiting around the Earth.

Astronauts come from all over the world and learn to live and work together to perform experiments.

- Like what?

- Like what happens to plants and humans when they don'’t have much gravity to hold them down.

- Ha!

Just like my experiment...sort of.

- And they have to find a way to share the space and not argue.

- Right, Mindy.

They depend on one another'’s research to help with what they'’re working on.

There'’s a lot of sharing of information.

- So, did you guys notice anything about what Face said that could help with your tree house space problem?

- Hmm.

Nope.

- Nuh-uh.

- Not really.

- [whimpers] - Well, I noticed something.

The astronauts all get along in the space station, even though it'’s a tight squeeze for them too.

all: Ohh!

- So, if we think of the tree house as our own little space station... - We could all work close together, side by side, sharing ideas.

- Yes!

What a great plan!

all: Excelsior!
