British astronaut Tim Peake proves he's your space dad on Twitter
British astronaut Tim Peake is proving that even a dad in space is still a dad when it comes to social media.
As any good dad on the internet would, Peake, who is currently spending six months on the International Space Station, shared a little video of himself cooking a breakfast of rehydrated scrambled eggs in the space lab.
The process for making the eggs seems pretty easy (you just add warm water and they fluff up), but Peake doesn't look particularly excited about eating the yellow concoction.
