I worked on that a bit. There were 3 space stations built, 2 at Sony Studios. 1 was a regular set and then a matching station on a gimble so that we could put the actors on "zip lines" to whizz through the corridors simulating weightlessness (wires will be erased in post production).

The third was built at a cold storage facility so that we could see the actors breath. They kept dropping the temp so the vapor would show up better, eventually hitting 25 degrees. This was when we were going through a heatwave, must have been 110 that week, thought I was going to catch pneumonia going from extreme cold to heat all day long.
