In preparation for the biggest game of the season for the Army Black Knights, former West Point graduate and current astronaut Andrew Morgan did the “The Rocket” cheer from space.

Morgan shared the following video on Friday, which showed him doing the cheer from the International Space Station orbiting the planet.

Then on Saturday, before the 120th Army-Navy Game, the cadets attending did the cheer while Morgan’s video played on the big screen.

That’s pretty amazing. Technology is awesome in that it has the power to bring the world closer together. And in this case, it helped Morgan come together with thousands to celebrate “America’s Game” while living life off the planet.
