Guests: Yang Se-Hyung
Episode at a glance (minor spoilers):
It is a continuation from the previous episode on the zero-gravity flight. They did some missions, like spinning in air, posing as superman etc. The next day (without Myungsoo, who disappeared), they carried on their training on this machine that could simulate different levels of gravity.
They then when to goof around in a real spacecraft before meeting a real astronaut. The astronaut brought them around the retired space station and showed them how astronauts lived in space.
The last segment was a supposedly space-related quiz to test the member's knowledge.

My Review (minor spoilers):
Every part of the zero-gravity flight was interesting and made you wish you could experience it for yourself. Se-Hyung is really witty thoughout, creating moments for himself such as the tricking of Jun-ha, random russian-babble and the $100 gynmast-pose bet. I think he is a natural fit for variety and his official addition will come soon enough.
Overall, the space special was nicely done. Carefully executing humour while retaining the serious nature of the project. This project certainly made the ordinary-viewer (who probably wouldn't watch a space documentary) in me more interested in space.

Backstory, Reference, Inside Jokes:
1) The space special was first announced in Ep 419 (March 2015) with the expected execution date to be end of 2015. Due to some complications, it was delayed, and in Ep 463 (Jan 2016), they did a parody of Martian to tie in with the space special.
2) With the completion of this project, they have finally completed the 5 challenges announced for the 10th anniversary of IC in 2015.
