Astronaut Chris Hadfield become the first Canadian to command the International Space Station on March 13, 2013.
But even before that, he had been breaking new ground, using technology to bring space into the home's of everyone. At least everyone with Twitter handles.
He has more Twitter followers than the Prime Minister. He would tweet stunning pictures of the Earth back to his almost 1,000,000 followers.
As his mission came to a close this week, the Space Station Commander upped the "Cool Factor" ante by recording David's Bowie's Space Oddity, from his own unique perspective aboard the Space Station. Take a listen. Space Oddity
Not bad for a Canadian, eh?
