NASA’s playlist on the ride to the launch pad includes songs from Alicia Keys, Phil Collins, Van Halen, Lenny Kravitz, and more. The playlist also featured Eminem’s 2002 iconic song ‘Till I Collapse‘ which appeared on his fourth studio album ‘The Eminem Show‘.
On Sunday night (November 15, 2020), SpaceX sent four people into orbit, overcoming dicey weather and minor difficulties with a spaceship hatch’s inner seal. The astronauts will dock with the International Space Station after a 27.6-hour journey in orbit and begin a six-month tenure.
The 9 engines of the Falcon 9 rocket roared to life at 7:19 p.m. ET, brightening the night chilly sky as the rocket arced over the Atlantic Ocean.
