The International Space Station crew, 220 miles above Earth, will
receive a special live musical
wakeup call from Paul McCartney Sunday during a first-ever concert
linkup.
The wakeup will come from McCartney's "US" Tour
performance at the Anaheim, Calif., Arrowhead
Pond. McCartney plans to play two songs,
"Good Day Sunshine" and "English Tea," for
NASA Astronaut Bill McArthur and Russian
Cosmonaut Valery Tokarev. This is the first
time a live concert will be linked to a U.S. spacecraft.
The call will take place at 12:55 a.m. EST, Sunday, Nov. 13 (9:55 p.m.
PST, Nov. 12) as the
concert is nearing its end; and McArthur and Tokarev are awakening for
the 44th day of their
six month mission in space. It will be broadcast live on NASA TV, with
video expected of
McArthur and Tokarev and audio from both locations.
