10. As tourists, will we be separated from the crew or are we able to watch and participate in some of the crew's work assignments and activities? (A K2S Question)

From The Space Library

As a general rule I would think that when serious work is being done you will be allowed to observe from a distance so as not to interfere or be a distraction. Depending on the extent of pre-flight training you might be permitted to do simple tasks that do not pose a risk to equipment or safety. Tasks such as changing an air filter, operating a trash compactor, vacuuming and cleaning a surface, or preparing food and beverages for a meal would be good candidates for your participation.
