Commander Kelly says "Music is a huge part of life in space. Here's my @Spotify playlist of a #YearInSpace".
"A year really is a long time...a long time to never be able to go outside, or feel the sun on your face, or to see your family through anything besides a computer screen. But a mission to Mars is even longer, and the work we're doing right now is a huge leap in reaching the goal of sending humans to walk on the Red planet.
Music has touched cultures all over the world since the earliest times in human history. It has long been a meaningful staple in life. It is a huge part of my life back on Earth. But when living in a place isolated from the rest of the world like here aboard the International Space Station, it becomes more significant. I imagine music will be equally as important to future space travellers as we go further beyond our global sphere.["]
Ask Soylent: I don't have a Spotify account and I am behind a firewall to boot, what is CDR Kelly listening to?

We all know that Astronauts in the future will listen to disco. It's a foregone conclusion.
There is no Sig. Okay, maybe a short one. http://miscdotgeek.com
