和我们大多数人一样,NASA 宇航员也必须醒来工作——即使他们在太空。因此,NASA 正在举办一场比赛,以选择两首新的唤醒歌曲,供 STS-134 航天飞机机组人员在国际空间站使用。获奖者将在下一次航天飞机任务(NASA 倒数第二次航天飞机飞行任务)期间宣布并播放,该任务计划于 4 月 29 日发射。

NASA 之前曾征集过音乐建议,但这次公众将从该机构从 1,350 个参赛作品中选出的 10 首决赛入围歌曲中投票选出一首。所有歌曲都是独立词曲作者的原创作品。您可以在投票页面上听到所有 10 首歌曲,并阅读有关每位歌手兼词曲作者及其创作灵感的一小段文字。歌曲标题从“火箭科学家”到“太空漫游”不等。投票截止日期为发射日。

让我们希望奋进号宇航员喜欢这些获奖歌曲,尤其是当这些歌曲在他们脑海中挥之不去时。我想知道零重力是否有助于缓解这种情况。
