The sound is out there

Article Abstract:

Music produced for science fiction films and television series has often been at the forefront of technical innovation. Initially, the music was simply made up of strange electronic sounds, but a more distinctive style of science fiction music later emerged. The music for '2001: A Space Odyssey' is regarded as the first classic science fiction score. Some music written for science fiction has later become a popular hit.

Not just the second man on the Moon

Article Abstract:

Being one of the first men to walk on the moon caused severe psychological problems for former astronaut Buzz Aldrin, as he was unable to cope with becoming a celebrity. However, he continued to play an active role in space science, and now has his life under full control. He has recently published a science-fiction novel, 'Encounter with Tiber,' which has received warm critical acclaim.
