Space Invaders: Tim Peake Takes It To The Next Level

 
Major Tim Peake has upped the stakes when it comes to gaming. 
 
Wearing a virtual reality headset, the former Army Apache pilot and fellow astronaut Scott Kelly played Space Invaders with their fingers while on the International Space Station.
 
The use of so-called 'augmented reality technology' is part of 'Project Sidekick', which eventually aims to aid the astronauts in their daily routine.
 
 
Forces TV is available on Sky 264, Virgin 277 and Freesat 652
