I actually had nothing to do with this one, though I think they did reference the firefly dvd’s that are still on board the ISS.Flight Day 6 - Shuttle crew awoke @4:14pET to theme song from "Firefly." The Ballad of Serenity, performed by Sonny Rhodes, was played for Bob Behnken.

CAPCOM Shannon Lucid: Good morning Endeavour. And a special good morning to you today, Bob.

Mission Specialist Bob Behnken: Well thank you, Shannon. And a special good morning back to you guys down in Houston for helping us out so much yesterday for a successful EVA 1. And I'd also just like to say that both on Endeavour and on the ISS, there is a little piece of Serenity for each of us who are fans of the Firefly series. Thanks.

Back when Steve Swanson took the DVDs up on STS-117 in 2007, I was rather disappointed that they didn't wake him up this way. Well, at least we know they're still Browncoats up there!

(Bob Behnken's haircut still bugs me, though!

This could be an excellent marketing tool for Whedon and his cronies..
