    So, if you were to describe your sleep pattern while stationed on the ISS... 12 days straight sleeping followed by 24 days awake (assuming a 40 minutes period for its orbit). Sure, you can say 8 hours, but using days sounds much more impressive.

    I'm not sure … sleeping 12 days per 36 days means sleeping 1/3 day per day. Same as 8 hours per 24h day.

    In another way it however does sound impressive: Sleeping 8*40 minutes per 36 days gives on average just 8 minutes and 32 seconds of sleep per day.

    ISS orbit is about 92 minutes.

    I love reading geeks commenting about the impossibility to find holes in the question...
