I’m sure none of the composers had any idea their music would be played extraterrestrially...it’s especially funny to have the Star Wars theme—when was it first played in space??—and the lord of the dance could do some very fancy footwork...
This tradition was upheld during SpaceX Crew Demo-2 - the astronauts were woken up to the tune of Planet Caravan by Black Sabbath.
