Astronauts have little free time, but they do occasionally play a game

Chris Hadfield has been back on Earth for a few days now, but his adventures in space are still coming out. He's made several videos and shot thousands of photos, and not all of them have been published so far.

One of the more interesting things that's only now available is a segment shot with Mythbusters' Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage for Tested.com.

The two came up with a game to be played in space, and only in space, for the rare occasions when astronauts had some time to kill.

The idea was to use the top spin of a ball to give it some interesting trajectories and maybe get the ball going around an obstacle.

The challenge, of course, was building the ball with the materials available on board the ISS. Chris was up to the challenge and you can watch the video to see how it all worked out (or didn't).
