International Space Station commander Chris Hadfield has seemingly made a name for himself as an 'internet sensation' (see below) as actually being an astronaut.

The Canadian astronaut's amazing pictures taken on the craft more than 100 miles above the Earth have gained him a huge following on Twitter - and brought the reality of life on the station home to millions.

One recent picture captured Hadfield in a unique position - in between a bubble of water and a camera.
