Dude! Like, do the Rockwood characters get vacation or holidays up on the space station, or is Kepler the only member who keeps track of the date and time? Which brings up another question, what Earth time zone do they follow?

Sure they get time off, Michael. Why, just this summer both Al and Mitch went to their high school reunion. We might not show everyone taking a vacation, but that doesn't mean they don't get them.

And one of the nice things about being in space is being able to pick whatever time zone you want. We tend to stick to Central Standard Time just to make it easier to read the TV schedule, but this week we might switch over to China Coast Time so we can watch the Women's World Cup We You never know who might be taking off their shirt in victory!
