Rabea Rogge, the first German woman in space, recently posted a video demonstrating how to roll a twenty-sided die in zero gravity. It's easy to throw dice when you're in polar orbit, as Rogge was, but how do you land one? Magnetized dice trays, maybe?
"We experimented a little," Rogge says, before demonstrating that actually the best solution is the least complicated one. She flicks the D20 upward, putting a little English on it so it spins, catches it in her fist, and peers through the gap in the top of her hand to check the result. It's a seven, so unfortunately she's failed her Wisdom saving throw and contracted space madness.
