Abstract
We obtain positronium Hyperfine Splitting owing to the non-commutativity of space and show that, in the leading order, it is proportional to where, is the parameter of non-commutativity. It is also shown that spatial non-commutativity splits the spacing between triplet excited levels which provides an experimental test on the non-commutativity of space.
