Thought I'd post this in case anyone has missed it. Way cool, and better than the David Bowie version IMHO.

This is a pretty cool video, made cooler by the fact it's sung by an actual astronaut.

I got to see Billy Corgan cover this live in concert a couple weeks ago; this song seems to be on the upswing.

Awesome video.

Though this comment made me laugh my head off:
"My Science teacher said this is Totally FAKE Because sound doesn't travel through the Vacuum of Space.

She said It was recorded on Earth; because you don't see a piano or drums, and in space there is no gravity for the guitar strings to work."

Wow. Was she also concerned that the camera stole his soul, so he would be unable to enter heaven even though he was practically there already?

My physics professor said that it must be fake, because if he was really in space the gravitational time dilation would cause the video to desync.

Oh, wait. I don't have a physics professor. I probably just made that comment up to troll people.

I liked the video. Sometimes you ppl read way to much into it.
