Angry Bird Rides Soyuz Rocket to the International Space Station

Bird Leader checking in from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. Red Bird has joined crew members Anton Shkaplerov, Anatoly Ivanishin and Dan Burbank aboard the Soyuz TMA-22 spacecraft for rendezvous and docking with the International Space Station on Tuesday. The ship is waiting, all systems are go. Are you sure? Control is not convinced, but the computer has the evidence. No need to abort. The countdown starts… 4, 3, 2, 1…we have lift off of the Soyuz TMA-22 spacecraft!

Red Bird…hello…are you receiving? “AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HING IT!”

    Wow. Very interesting. It’s amazing why people do stuff like this…

    By Bronius

    Wow, speaking of pervasive, viral marketing! The narrating voice even makes mention of the red bird by name in the last few seconds of the clip.

    I was talking to an Iraq vet on a plane a while back and he was saying they were hooked on Angry Birds at the base while awaiting orders. Lol.

    Wouldn’t it be great if Rovio used this as a platform for further ‘Angry Birds in Space’ levels?

    What I’m thinking is that they will use a space theme in the next chapter of Angry Birds.

    that’s exactly what i was thinking to because what else could do it on beside space, i mean they have to do this for episode 7. Can anyone guess what they might make the theme in the next episode besides a space theme?

    Hopefully a military base like the Army or Marines.

    You see, in South Korea there is a game called Super Action Hero and the stages are on space in planets, and it’s made by Gamevil.
    How about a new game called Angry Birds Space?

    I hope so, I really enjoyed the first few trips to space with the angry birds.

    I think it was fun for a couple of levels but the anti-gravity feature takes the “make everything collapse”-fun a bit away. You need that gravitity to make a good destruction after all! :-)

    So I would vote no for an entire space episode. But I would really hope to see the orange bird in 7!

    By Silent Assassin (@silent-assassin)

    Yeah, it would be cool and they’ve already made two levels of it in seasons

    LOL. At 0:48. The first angry bird to fly!

    Great! I hope the next level is in space, with martian pigs!

    Sorry, couldn’t resist that one. But you had to know it was coming, right?

    Glad someone called that out! I had that song in my head while writing this post.

    I keep hearing “pigs in space” from the old Muppet show, even though that shows my age :). This video is great. Looking forward to the next level, no matter where it is set. Thanks for the info.

    Hey bird leader, you should probably add a new post in the News and Rumors section about Angry Birds Rio winning awards. It won the title of “Best Mobile” at the Golden Joystick Awards 2011 in London as well as the iLounge Reader’s Choice 2011 Award. Please Add. Thanks.

    Is it just me or is angry birds getting a little boring. I just feel that the updates are not coming out as much and the buzz is dying a little.

    You mean aside from the Seasons update that came out 3 weeks ago, and the Rio update for iOS 2 weeks ago, and the major updates for Mac and PC?

    what was the seasons update from from3 weeks ago? I have been checking and haven’t seen any updates. By the way, love the videos, angry birds on space would be cool for a level. Beam me up scotty:)

    Seasons update was Ham’o’ween (3 weeks ago = end of October).

    What happened to angry birds rebeals, it said most people voted yes.

    That was nothing more than fan art and a poll done exclusively on ABN. It was by no means Rovio-official.

    Very tiring but maybe just a little tip off.
    In user profiles, there is a tab for ‘My Latest Contributions’ maybe you could add the updates we give or images or something over there?

    That’s not what that section refers to.

    That section shows your latest comments. It’s on my to do list to build this out a bit more so it shows more detail.

    Ah, yes, indeed. That should only really be shown if someone has > 1 post. Fixed. Thanks.

    by game do you mean episode or new separate app?

    I think that it should be an update for the original angry birds

    hmm,why did they had to bring that bird leader?

    This video was interesting. An AB toy floating in actual space inside a space ship with astronauts going to the space station. Wow! This as been a worthwhile journey into the previous posts.
