Rovio Entertainment has released a trailer for their upcoming title Angry Birds Space, and it’s special because they have NASA scientist and International Space Station resident, Don Pettit, giving us a demonstration of the game.

Just how many space credits Rovio had to splurge for this advertising stunt isn’t known, but it goes to show that despite a piracy problem on Mars, the success of the original Angry Birds game was of solar system proportions.

Some of the new features include zero gravity and massive object physics, slow-motion and lightspeed destruction.

Angry Birds Space will be launching on 22 March 2012 for PC, Mac, Android and iOS.
