While you shouldn't expect a bikini girl (or boy) like on American idol or Jon and Kate Gosselin fighting like cats and dogs like on Jon and Kate Plus 8, one can expect to see what the astronauts are doing via a webcam.

What will you see and what are the hours for viewing? "They vary depending on what is going on aboard the station," NASA spokesperson Kelly Humphries told SPACE.com. "In general, crew duty hours are 1 a.m. Eastern to 4 p.m. Eastern. That changes to accommodate comings and goings of visiting spacecraft."

See here at Space.com for more information and on how the signal is transferred and what you may want to look for when viewing the feed. To view the streaming space station video see the NASA website here.

The space station is currently home to two American astronauts, two Russian cosmonauts and one Japanese astronaut.
