      Hi Anon,

      Internet connections have got much better for the guys on the ISS over recent years! They would be able to get this message pretty quickly, and respond quickly too.

      Tim is tweeting pretty much daily from the ISS so he doesn’t have too much trouble getting some internet connection! If the worst case scenario would be that he would have to go a day without seeing this message, I think he/we can be be pretty happy with that! 🙂
