Guy 'Experimenting' (Read: Playing) With Water In Space

Due to the temporarily renewed interest in space thanks to the Curiosity rover on Mars, here's a video of an astronaut aboard the International Space Station playing with a big ball of water. SPOILER: It looks way funner than playing with water on earth. You watch this video and blowing bubbles during bath-time just isn't gonna be the same anymore. And I'm not just saying that because I peed in the tub before you decided to take bathe in there, but I did, and I don't regret it. I am sorry though (I was high and pretending to be cat).

Hit the jump and see water act in ways you never have before! (Except in other water-in-space videos).

Thanks to XorKaya, who heard installing pools in space is cheap because like, you don't have to dig a hole or anything.

  This is a short video of a red-hot ball of nickel being dropped into a cup of water, and the resulting noises it makes. They're funny. I especially liked the very end, it reminded me of the sound you hear whenever you teleport somewhere. Speaking of -- I can't even tell you... / Continue →
