A song by local band Calexico was used to wake up the crew of the space shuttle Endeavour. The song, "Slowness," is about two people reaching across a distance, and references places in the Tucson area including Gates Pass and Signal Hill. The band is a favorite of U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords', whose husband, Mark Kelly, is commanding Endeavour's final flight. The song's theme is especially meaningful as Giffords remains hospitalized in Houston, recovering from a gunshot to the head. http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/album-rewievs/42970-calexico-music-wakes-u...
