[Kaido]

Hah, I have to post a second time. That was awesome!

 

[AMD64Blondie]

O.K..that was awesome.

I wonder if David Bowie, in 1969, had any idea that 40 years later some guy in a space station would make a DIY music video covering his song and then post it on Youtube for millions to see.

In HD no less.

 

[ElFenix]

does nasa get youtube money cuz that's still bad ass

 

[RossMAN]

That was seriously freakin' awesome.

 

[Leros]

First music video made in space?

 

[SlowSpyder]

Awesome... loved it!

 

[ElFenix]

can i earmark my tax dollars for nasa?

 

[ImpulsE69]

Can't believe no one has knocked all the lens flare yet. ;p

 

[Dominato3r]

I'm surprised with the production value. I thought it was going to be some crappy video.

 

[TraumaRN]

We need people like him to make space cool and get people dreaming again about going to the stars. I hope NASA and ESA realize the benefits of having such a charismatic commander in space. This video was awesome.

Awesome video.. I posted it on facebook and not one person liked it.. stupid ass people. If I posted a worldstarhiphop video they'd all go nuts..

I give up on the human race

For all the people who complain about tax dollars... he's canadian and this was clearly filmed by the CSA ASC. So it is both badass and you can't blame NASA for it.

No.

NASA still helped fund the construction of the ISS as a space station, not a music studio.

I didn't realize that astronauts were on duty 24/7 when they're up there. Must be tough to go so long without being allowed to sleep.

 

[ElFenix]

No.

Bowie has to be thrilled to have a cover done like that.

 

[Yamada]

Yes yes, it's "badass"...a 720p (in this day and age?) video of a guy lipsyncing, some great shots of Earth, neither of which I can't already find on Youtube.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for space exploration, science, riding around in pressurized cans of air above the atmosphere...but WTF? if you've got the balls to ride up into space...sing the damn song yourself.

Like I said, your tax dollars at work.
