Bonus! Moonshot Songs o' the Day: Apollo 9

They Might Be Giants, "What Is a Shooting Star?" from Here Comes Science (Space Cadet Mike Papa Whiskey)

Commentary:
"A shooting star is not a star,
Is not a star at all,
A shooting star's a meteor
That's heading for a fall.

"A shooting star is not a star,
Why does it shine so bright?
The friction as it falls through air
Produces heat and light…"

National Aeronautics & Space Administration, "Apollo 9 Excerpt 9" from The Apollo Missions (Space Cadet Mike Papa Whiskey)
