Sounds of rain and croaking frogs were carried into space. A Russian rocket arrived at the International Space Station packed with water, food and fuel and sounds of the earth for homesick people.

雨声和蛙鸣被载入太空。一枚满载水、食物、燃料和天籁之音的俄罗斯火箭抵达国际空间站，慰藉满腹乡愁的宇航员。医生说大自然的声音可使空间站的工作人员放松，以助他们渡过远离地球的6个月。宇航员们将于10月返回。
