Spaceballs The Game!

[bloodyrosemccoy]

I really hope that they figure out a way to make this game viable, simply because then we could say that the Mythbusters invented actual spaceball.

Everything is cooler in space. To prove it, I will link you to the Cracked article that introduced me to this video. It's by Mark Hill and Chris Hadfield, and it answers a question I've had for quite a while about returning to Earth--namely, upon returning, do astronauts just absentmindedly drop things all over the place because they forget about gravity being a thing?*

I'm not sure I buy the sleeping thing, though. I think I'd have a hard time relaxing if I didn't feel like I was solidly ON something, at least at first. Maybe someday when space tourism is an affordable thing I will be able to test this. For now, I'm gonna go look up more Space Making Mundane Things Fascinating videos.


*Answer: yes.
ETA: ellixis adds: VERY YES.

I still love his washcloth one. Who'd have thought that it would look so cool? Or just how difficult it'd be to actually saturate a washcloth in micro-g?
