Angry Birds developer Rovio convinced NASA to help promote their next game from space, USA Today reported.

The game publisher posted a video introducing the first footage of Angry Birds: Space. The announcement was made by astronaut Don Pettit aboard the International Space Station.

Most of the video involves Pettit participating in physics demonstrations "that involve some of the things you might see in the Angry Birds game."

The footage of Angry Birds: Space in action kicks off at right around the 3-minute mark. Gravity definitely plays a role, as viewers will see birds floating in space poised to knock out hiding pigs.

The game launches March 22 for Apple's iOS, Google Android, PC and Mac.
