Godspeed Commander Hadfield

Cana­dian astro­naut, space enthu­si­ast, edu­cator, social media sen­sa­tion, and now enter­tainer? Yep, those are just a sampling of the roles that Com­mander Chris Hadifeld ful­filled dur­ing his 146 day post­ing to the ISS as Sta­tion Commander.

His Soyuz cap­sule returns to Earth tomor­row even­ing, but as a last sur­prise, the Com­mander released this video rework­ing of David Bowie’s Space Oddity. Enjoy, and thank you Com­mander Had­field! Have a safe jour­ney home!

I’m quite enjoying Sid Meier’s Ace Patrol!

Yep, I’m hav­ing fun with Ace Patrol, as you may have seen in my pre­vi­ous post, it’s a light single/multiplayer, World War I stra­tegic com­bat game. Air­fights con­sist of up to 8 com­batants, four per side, and vary depend­ing on air­craft, pilot skill, and game dif­fi­culty level.

Ace Patrol is cur­rently only avail­able for iPad, iPod Touch and iPhone in the Canada iTunes store, dur­ing this pre-launch period, but it will be avail­able world­wide on May 9th.

I’m hav­ing a blast, check out the ingame images below:
