About 6 astronauts who are continuously circling the moon on the space station. Not much actually happens on board the space station, and the book is more about how the station rotates around the earth and what the crew members see on each rotation. Even though the timespan of the book is quite short, the station speeds around the earth in 90 minutes so there's a lot of rotations.
Somehow the author can just keep on describing each new rotation, and the countries that it passes, in really interesting ways and it doesn't get boring at all. The author clearly did her research on how the station would actually rotate.
