why isn't there footage of him on the piano in space??
[QUOTE=Water-Marine;40624865]Dude's taught people so much about space just from simple explanations, it's a shame there's a new commander.
I've always wondered though, and this has been puzzling me for a while, how guitar sustain is affected by Zero Gs...will it ring out indefinitely?[/QUOTE]
Bearing in mind the only difference really is the lack of gravity (well, gravitational forces), which - while it does affect stuff like the density of air, and therefore the speed of sound, by small amounts - produces no noticable affect on soundwaves, as far as I know.

Wouldn't there be no gravity to pull the hammers back down?

My thoughts exactly.
The piano was either recorded here on earth, or is a digital instrument. (Or both)

He's the first Canadian to do an EVA, so I'm guessing that's him.

I believe he cooperated with an actual live member of Bowie's band to get the rest of the instruments coordinated.

I hesitate to believe they would send up a full piano, even if it functioned in space
He has the Howard Moon shrimp eyes
Very nice song.
The original is quite sad though..
