[Vision2020] US Astronaut, In Spacesuit, Sings Garth Brooks' "The River" at Baikonur Cosmodrome Before Soyuz Blast-off

[Ted Moffett]

US astronaut Tracy Dyson singing Brooks' "The River," suited up
in a spacesuit (with the helmet off singing into a microphone) shortly
before launch, was on NASA television off satellite Directtv, but I have not
been able to locate a source for this performance on the Internet, not even
on NASA's YouTube offerings.  Maybe someone else can locate an Internet
source.   I found the performance in the unique situation involved rather
compelling.  A picture of her singing before launch is at the following
website:
