From a New Scientist blog: Top 10 songs inspired by the Apollo missions. David Bowie’s “Space Oddity” is missing, though you could argue since he was actually inspired by Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey, it doesn’t count. But regardless, Bowie is releasing “Space Oddity” this month in a Digital EP format to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the single and the moon landing. The EP consists of four different versions of the single plus the eight original recording tracks for remixing.
