Astronaut's 'Angry Birds Space' Ad Is Out of This World

Game developers have been to the edge of space, but Rovio has boldly gone where no ad has gone before—to the International Space Station. The video below, starring astronaut Don Pettit, promotes the upcoming version of Angry Birds that takes place in the depths of space, and has racked up more than a half-million views in its first 24 hours—bringing great exposure to both the game and NASA's continued work. In the clip, Pettit illustrates the pig-killing physics of deploying Angry Birds in a zero-gravity environment.
