“Difficulty returning to Earth? A little bit, yes, because we are no longer used to walking, we have to learn again. It takes a few hours and a few days to regain balance.”
Thus Samantha Cristoforetti, commander of the International Space Station, answering Darius' question during the live video with children and young people gathered in the multifunctional space Casa di Vetro in Fork as part of the event “In dialogue with space”.
The event, which was also attended by the mayor of Naples Gaetano Manfredi and the Campania Region Education Councilor Lucia Fortini, is part of the Naples stage, the third in collaboration with Enav, of the Italia Brilla – Costellazione 2022 project promoted by the Il Cielo Itinerante association.
At the same time, there will be a connection with the Milan Triennale in the presence of the founders of Cielo Itinerante, Ersilia Vaudo and Alessia Mosca, with the participation of the mayor Giuseppe Sala.
“We have a lot of fun with things that float,” Cristoforetti told Alessandro, who asked her what astronauts play with. And answering Roberta, she confessed: “What I like, on a work level, is that we do so many activities every day and on a personal level I really like the feeling of floating, I will miss it.”
"This connection - Manfredi highlighted - is a sign of the importance of these recovery actions and support for the education of our children in a very difficult and very important neighborhood for the city. An eye from space that gives great attention to the future of the city that starts from our kids who need to be helped to integrate well into the school path".
