Space Oddity: Song, nail clipping in zero gravity

Commander Chris Hadfield is back on earth, but he did record a slew of videos on board the International Space Station. And boy, are they fun to watch!

From singing a revised version of David Bowie’s ‘Space Oddity’ in zero-gravity (complete with guitar notes and all), to crying in outer space (just to prove that tears don’t fall off on their own up there), to brushing your teeth while floating around, without getting the toothpaste into your nostrils (what, it is very likely to happen up there, you know), Canadian astronaut Hadfield’s videos will have you entertained for sure.

Have a look at some of the most entertaining ones for yourself:
