Leonid Kadenyuk was astronaut of STS-87 mission.

Year ago[1] (February 4, 2017), in one of his interviews on Hromadske Radio[2], he told:

> Interviewer: Did You took record of National Anthem of Ukraine on "Columbia" board?

> Leonid Kadenyuk: Every astronaut of this mission should request some music as alarm-clock sound. At 7 oclock in the morning from flight control center in Houston streamed some music on ship board, as alternative to classic alarm-clock sound. When I was asked for request melody, I thought, why not Anthem of Ukraine. And then told "Let's Anthem of Ukraine will sound".
