NASA astronaut Chris Cassidy, commander of Expedition 63, jammed out to Travis Tritt’s “It’s a Great Day to Be Alive” aboard the International Space Station.

Even amid the uncertainty & difficulties, we encourage everyone to be the best ‘crewmates’ & take care of each other. Cherish the people you love.”

After seeing the video, Travis posted his own message via Twitter, stating: “This is the closest I will ever get to actually being in space. I’m very honored to have my music being played on the International Space Station! Thanks so much!”

Expedition 63’s mission began on April 17, 2020, and will continue through October 2020.
