In a Reddit "ask me anything" session earlier this month, Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield opened up about life in space, and said he plans to "deliberately mentally get away" from his normal duties by playing guitar and spending "some time to truly appreciate what is actually happening — to me, and in history." He also promised to record a song aboard the International Space Station, and he's done just that; yesterday, Hadfield uploaded "Jewel in the Night," an original recording, to Soundcloud and YouTube. The guitar has been aboard the ISS since 2001, and multiple astronauts have used it aboard the space station. At this moment, Hadfield is floating somewhere over the Mediterranean, playing Christmas carols.
