The recording starts with McArthur’s toy penguin Guin Guin attached to a clear ball. As the video goes on, she gives the ball a flip, resulting in the penguin to fly away at a distance and then float around in zero gravity. “I thought @Space_Station would be a good place for my friend Guin-Guin to #LearntoFly. Flippers up, let’s go!” reads the caption shared alongside the clip.

Take a look at the video:

“That's what they did in the beginning on earth all them years ago,” wrote a Twitter user. “Good example of the conversation of angular momentum, as the radius reduces the speed increases,” commented another.
