Paolo Nespoli in Milano, at the Museo della Tecnica, on 7 November 2010

It was the last and only chance for ESA astronaut Paolo Nespoli to talk about the mission highlights in his home country before the launch of his MagISStra mission in mid-December.

The audience of some 300 media, invited guests and public at the Museo Nazionale della Scienza e della Tecnologia Leonardo da Vinci in Milan enjoyed Paolo talking about his upcoming mission and taking part in a 3D show giving a unique view of the International Space Station (ISS) and his training. He will use ESA’s novel 3D camera to produce new impressive images of the ISS.
