New Delhi: Industrialist Anand Mahindra is known for sharing motivational and informative posts on Twitter. Recently, Mahindra shared a time-lapse video of astronaut Chris Cassidy working outside the International Space Station (ISS). Calling it an "out-of-this-world ballet", Mahindra said he wanted his work to be as exciting as that of the astronaut's.

"Just mesmerising to watch. Literally like an out-of-this-world ballet. I want to start my week believing my work is going to be as critical – and as fascinating – as this astronaut’s work is," Mahindra tweeted while sharing the video.

The viral video struck chords with netizens on the internet. "Earth spinning and the work in space takes so much time to get it done. Fascinating," wrote one user. One user also said that Mahindra should get into space business.

The video was originally posted by Wonder of Science on Twitter on May 29, which has received more than six lakh views so far.

According to the Wonders of Science Twitter page, the video was captured "during a spacewalk on July 21, 2020, to replace Nickel-Hydrogen batteries located on the outside of the ISS with newer Lithium-Ion batteries".

Earlier this week, Anand Mahindra, in a thread, spoke about his father Harish Mahindra's application to Tufts University's Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy. Mahindra was provided copies of the application when he visited The Fletcher School last month to deliver the Class Day Address.

"So proud to read my father's audacious aspiration and bold statement while India was still a British colony. I'd never talked to him about those aspirations," he had said advising young people "to talk and learn more about their parent while they are still around".
