Saturday Night Live (SNL) video
An unexpected chain of events occurs while Captain Ed McGovern (Steve Carell) live streams from the International Space Station to children's classrooms across America.

As you can see with the advanced level of training provided to our astronauts the hull breach was repaired at record speed. Can not help the poor kitty.

(For sure, I thought it was Tang, but the punch line is "a root beer float.")
*I was there in the 60s...it was definitely Tang.

Good laughs!
It would seem that the video is not available in France as well (go figure!).

Neat backstory: While preparing this skit for the broadcast, SNL's production and costume crews contacted TheSpaceStore.com and purchased six flight suits and 40 patches, which were sewn onto the suits by SNL's costume unit.
The flight suits worn by host Steve Carell and cast during the scene's broadcast represented the final product of this awesome collaboration.
