He may be 230 miles above Earth, but Commander Chris Hadfield, an astronaut aboard the International Space Station, is thirsty to show the world what life is like in space.

Since the Canadian astronaut arrived on the ISS December 19, he's been tweeting awesome photos of Earth, uploading 'how to videos' from the ISS, and even recording songs on Song Cloud.
