Rock it, man!

2013, A Space Oddity

This man is cool. Not only is Chris Hadfield a bona fide astronaut who commanded the International Space Station, he got to sing Space Oddity (David Bowie's hit song) while strumming the guitar. For the record, Hadfield made the first music video in space...






Here's the must-see video clip which includes stunning views of Earth from the space station:

Meanwhile, here's ST's update on Singapore's bid to put a Singaporean into "space"... 


So shy, ah! Seven unmanned flight tests have been made overseas (where?) so far and no one knew. In any case, the craft in question will not reach beyond Earth's stratosphere, so technically it will not be going into space. As previously reported, the launch is set for National Day 2015.

I'm taking advantage of the super-long weekend break to fly off to Surabaya. Back blogging on Monday.
