Learning his return to Earth from the International Space Station might be delayed for possibly up to two months, NASA astronaut Ron Garan sings the blues from the Soyuz spacecraft that will take him home. Eventually. It's all in good fun, so enjoy. (Note: Since Ron and the Expedition 28 crew made this video during some weekend downtime, return options were reviewed by NASA. He safely returned to Earth on September 16, 2011).
The members of the Expedition 28 in order of appearance: Mike Fossum, Satoshi Furukawa, Andrey Borisenko, Alexander (Sasha) Samokutyaev, Sergei Volkov and Ron Garan
