A tradition for NASA human spaceflights since the days of [[Wikipedia:Project Gemini|Gemini]], mission crews are played a special musical track at the start of each day in space. Each track is specially chosen, often by their families, and usually has a special meaning to an individual member of the crew, or is applicable to their daily activities.
