DAVID Bowie has given Commander Chris Hadfield the thumbs up for the astronaut's zero gravity version of Space Oddity.
The five-minute video posted by NASA drew a salute from Bowie's
official Facebook page: "It's possibly the most poignant version of the
song ever created." In a high-flying, perfectly pitched first,
the Canadian astronaut on the International Space Station is bowing out
of orbit with a musical video of his own custom version of David
Bowie's 1969 classic.
It's believed to be the first music video made in space, according to NASA.
Commander
Hadfield's personalised rendition of Space Oddity was posted on YouTube
yesterday, one day before his departure from the orbiting lab. He's
wrapping up a five-month mission that began last December. His
return aboard a Russian Soyuz capsule, along with American Thomas
Marshburn and Russian Roman Romanenko, was set for sometime within the
next 24 hours in Kazakhstan.
