Astronaut Chris Hadfield has previously said 'there's a bit of an Alice in Wonderland feel to [The ISS]', because it can be difficult to orientate yourself on the space station.

Now, fans of the International Space Station can take a dizzying virtual tour of all 15 of its modules using Google Street View to experience it for themselves.

To mark the 48th anniversary of the first successful moon landing, the firm has released an astonishing collection of 360-degree images from inside Nasa's orbiting outpost.

And as you walk through the modules of the ISS, you’ll see find annotations highlighting things like where the astronauts work out to stay physically fit, what kind of food they eat, and where they do scientific experiments.
