Matthew had a burnout years ago and fled to Portugal to set up his paradise quinta in Portugal. But that sanctuary is now under threat: permission has been granted for an avocado plantation to be built next door. But avocados use up huge amounts of water, and the stream that the quinta depends on as a primary water source is in danger of running dry.

As soon as weightlessness sets in in Earth orbit, everything floats, including bodily fluids. Most astronauts suffer from space sickness – similar to seasickness. You get sick, your eyes go crazy, your face swells up, your legs get longer and after a few sleepless nights (there is no day or night in space) many astronauts get severe back pain.
