That's incredible, too bad really the photo resolution isn't higher, with more annotations. You could spend a day exploring. How do astronauts avoid bumping into and damaging tubes and cables while getting around? That looks really difficult to me, there's no uncluttered spot.

First of all, this is brilliant! No ifs or buts. Thank you NASA, thank you Google! However, "walking" around a bit does not so much inspire awe and wonder as claustrophobia.

  Yea that's about what I expected though. Reminds me of walking around a submarine, only worse.

ESA also has a virtual tour of ISS. http://esamultimedia.esa.int/multimedia/virtual-tour-iss/ http://esamultimedia.esa.int/multimedia/virtual-tour-iss/ Videos show some ISS components. Also they got most of their station computers on, if you are curious about what these display.
