This is just really, really cool – the crew of Endeavour STS-130 awoke this morning to the Ballad of Serenity.
And NASA announced it on Twitter – and is even hosting the mp3 for download. Though you can also get it from the Firefly Wiki.
funny comment from the thread at Whedon’s site: “and then the Space Shuttle program was cancelled. Coincidence?â€
here’s the lyrics:
Take my love, take my land
Take me where I cannot stand
I don’t care, I’m still free
You can’t take the sky from me
Take me out to the black
Tell them I ain’t comin’ back
Burn the land and boil the sea
You can’t take the sky from me
There’s no place I can be
Since I found Serenity
But you can’t take the sky from me…
