The International Space Station
Believe it or not, St. Patrick's Day celebrations have made it even into outer space! In 2011, Irish-American astronaut Catherine Coleman played a hundred-year-old flute and a tin whistle belonging to members of the Irish music group The Chieftains while floating weightless in the space station. In 2013, astronaut Chris Hadfield took photographs of Ireland from Earth orbit, and posted online a picture of himself wearing green clothing in the space station and a recording of himself singing "Danny Boy" in space.
