Thomas Pesquet has been on board the International Space Station (ISS) for three months.
The French astronaut is carrying out his second mission there in orbit.
It has been rather busy so far with three spacewalks to install new solar panels, numerous scientific experiments and the expected arrival in a few days of a new Russian module, the MLM Nauka.
Halfway through the Alpha mission, Thomas Pesquet gave an exceptional duplex interview from the ISS to RFI and France 24.
