Space Oddity In Space

“Space Oddity” has been covered on board the international space station by Commander Chris Hadfield.

Hadfield posted a video of the song on Sunday to mark his last full day in orbit on the station, as he has now returned to Earth sometime yesterday in a Russia Soyuz spacecraft.

Bowie himself enjoyed the video, tweeting “Hallo Spaceboy…” to Hadfield.

The Commander took time to thank Canadian musician Emm Gryner, his son Evan Hadfield, music producer Joe Corcoran, and TV producer Andrew Tidby “for all their hard work” when he posted his cover version.
