“Although flown to 100,000 miles, I feel very calm and in no time I know it’s time to go,” sings the astronaut, repeating the words of Bowie.
Hadfield, the NASA astronaut Tom Marshburn and Russian cosmonaut Roman Romanenko, have accumulated millions of miles while circling approximately 402 km above the planet during the past months.
The video, which was developed with the help of Hadfield’s son, Evan, and with support from Bowie, complete with a Soyuz capsule deploys its parachute to reach Earth.
