Dutch Beatles tribute band Love & Mersey has released a music video tribute to the ATV-3 and ISS crew members André Kuiper and Oleg Kononenko who will be responsible for its March 28 docking.
“We wanted to do a song that celebrates André, who is Dutch and on his second space mission, and Oleg, who is Russian and will work closely with André during ATV docking,” said band member Jan Hovers.
“ATV is a wonderful bit of European space success, and this will be its third mission to the ISS, so we wrote a song themed on ‘getting back to the ISS’ and made sure we included lyrics in several languages.”
Love & Mersey collaborated with ESA on the video, which was filmed at Space Expo, collocated with ESA’s Estec facility. A preview of the video was released after the ATV’s successful March 23 launch.
