Science and WeatherSing along with Chris Hadfield on Music Monday
May 6th is Music Monday 2013, and this year's celebration was out of this world as the Coalition for Music Education received some help from Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield, aboard the International Space Station.
The theme for Music Monday, this time around, was ‘Filling the Skies with Music’, and starting at 12 noon, EDT, the Coalition had a live webcast — the first "Earth to Orbit Music Monday" — which linked up with Chris Hadfield aboard the ISS, so that he could lead hundreds of thousands of school children (and many more other people) in singing ISS — Is Someone Singing.

If you missed it, or couldn't manage to tune in at the time, NASA has you covered, with this video they recorded:
