My parallel, and it might be a bit tenuous, is scuba diving. After the first few times it did not get old. It did not get boring or mundane. Every dive is different and every dive I see something different. Even visiting the same dive resort and doing some dives sites dozens of times it hasn’t gotten old. Again, there is something different to see or the same thing to see but the excitement of “is that seahorse still there?” or “I haven’t been here in a year, has this shipwreck changed?” I would imagine for an astronaut visiting The ISS there are new things for them to see daily or even hourly. Seeing storms on the earth would be cool, seeing different parts of the earth at night, how landscapes change, all that stuff would continue to be fascinating.
