和我們大多數人一樣,NASA 宇航員也必須醒來工作——即使他們在太空。因此,NASA 正在舉辦一場比賽,以選擇兩首新的喚醒歌曲,供 STS-134 太空梭機組人員在國際空間站使用。獲獎者將在下一次太空梭任務(NASA 倒數第二次太空梭飛行任務)期間宣佈並播放,該任務計劃於 4 月 29 日發射。

NASA 之前曾徵集過音樂建議,但這次公眾將從該機構從 1,350 個參賽作品中選出的 10 首決賽入圍歌曲中投票選出一首。所有歌曲都是獨立詞曲作者的原創作品。您可以在投票頁面上聽到所有 10 首歌曲,並閱讀有關每位歌手兼詞曲作者及其創作靈感的一小段文字。歌曲標題從“火箭科學家”到“太空漫遊”不等。投票截止日期為發射日。

讓我們希望奮進號宇航員喜歡這些獲獎歌曲,尤其是當這些歌曲在他們腦海中揮之不去時。我想知道零重力是否有助於緩解這種情況。
