    Six astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) marked the beginning of the Paris Olympics in weightlessness.

    A video by Nasa showed the various astronauts holding a fake torch and participating in exercises reminiscent of the sports played during the Games.

    Astronaut Matthew Dominick closed the video with a message to the Olympic athletes.

    “We, of course, have had the benefit of weightlessness. We can’t imagine how hard this must be to be such a world class athlete. Doing your sports under actual gravity,” he said.

    “So from all of us aboard the International Space Station to every single athlete in the Olympic Games, Godspeed.”
